Janelle Brown, one of the stars of the popular reality TV show “Sister Wives,” recently experienced a heartbreaking tragedy when her son, Garrison Brown, took his own life. The details surrounding his death are both shocking and devastating, shedding light on the struggles he was facing in the days leading up to his passing.
According to a police report obtained by TMZ, Janelle became concerned about Garrison after receiving troubling texts from him. In these messages, Garrison expressed sentiments that were cause for alarm, prompting Janelle to take action. She reached out to some of the people the Brown family works with, presumably from their reality show, to express her concerns about Garrison’s well-being.
When Janelle did not receive a response from Garrison after texting him directly, she decided to send one of her other sons, Gabriel, to check on his brother. Tragically, by the time Gabriel arrived at Garrison’s residence in Flagstaff, it was too late. Garrison had taken his own life with a handgun.
What makes this story even more heartbreaking is the fact that Garrison’s roommates heard a noise the night before his death but did not investigate further. It wasn’t until Gabriel arrived the next day that they realized what had happened. The roommates mentioned that Garrison had been struggling with alcohol, adding another layer to the complexity of his struggles.
Despite the challenges he was facing, Garrison appeared to be doing relatively well in the eyes of his family. He had recently started a new job at a medical facility and seemed to be managing on his own. However, his inner turmoil ultimately proved to be too much to bear.
In the wake of this tragedy, Janelle revealed to police that Garrison was estranged from his father, Kody. This detail adds another layer of complexity to the family dynamics and the struggles Garrison may have been facing.
The loss of Garrison Brown is a heartbreaking reminder of the importance of mental health awareness and support. If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available.
