On April 22, 1986, in Berea, Ohio, 13-year-old Robyn Field was fatally beaten and strangled, her body then dumped by her killer in a nearby ravine. Her killer, 15 year old Warren Paxton Brown, was a boy that she knew and befriended. He revealed to friends his plan to kill her prior to commiting the act, then hid her body after luring her to his house where he commited this heinous crime. Hours later hedumped her body with the help of his aunt.He assisted in the search for her body and attended her funeral, placing flowers upon her grave. Warren Paxton Brown was initially eligible for the death penalty but has had the opportunity to build a life behind bars for the past 24 years. He is eligible for parole, for the 2nd time, in April 2010. To release him from prison would be a devasting blow to Robyn's family, whose pain has not lessened in the 24 years since her brutal murder, and to our community.
I just saw the number hit one thousand and I honestly have to sit down for a second because my hands are shaking while I type this. It is overwhelming to think about how many people care about Robyn even after all these years of silence. I keep replaying the image of her funeral in my head and thinking about how much she deserved a full life but this support makes me feel less alone in the fight to keep him where he belongs.

I was just looking at the total and my hands started shaking because we are just shy of a thousand signatures and honestly that would be such a strong message for the board. If you can just blast this link out to your own circles or even just one person you think might care about justice for Robyn it would mean so much to be able to present that number to them.

Please dont ever let him out. I live in Berea and it's hard to walk where they walked that horrible day.

I've been in prison myself (white collar crime) and I slept for two and a half years with a murder on either side of me. They both had done everything they humanly possible to make amends to the families of their victims. So much so that the families were for the two women that I believe I was fortunate enough to have known. My point is, I believe that if or when someone is truly trying to make amends they don't do it by making a petition. They keep their victims families in mind and do what they can for them not themselves. Sorry I tend to ramble. I'm sorry for your loss.

I just watched Paula Zahn and it sickens me. He is psychopath and they need locking up for their entire life.

So sad…Poor girl. Keep this man behind bars. We have no sympathy for what he did to your sweet, beautiful sister.

This person does not deserve to have any semblance of freedom, let alone parole.
He took the life of a sweet, innocent 13 year old. He OWES a debt to society, and Robyn's family, that prevents him from ever having a life of his own.
