So, Nancy, this is in Wellington, Florida, Palm Beach County, and it's nineteen ninety it's a Memorial Day weekend, and forty year old Marlene Warren, she was eating breakfast with her son and his friends. They were in their early twenties and the doorbell rings. She got up to answer it, and she opened the door and there was a clown that had a flower arrangement and balloons. And that's not all he had. He had a gun, pulled it out and I say he meaning a clown, you think of a He and shot Marlene Warren dead shot her in the face, then got into a white Chrysler convertible and left the scene. Marlene Warren died two days later in the hospital.

There's so many questions, just rickcheting off the inside of my mind right now, because you know, if you look at this Jeff Cortesi for or FBI, she's so clearly targeted because the person walks up to the door, rings the doorbell, she answers the shooter, and then walk back to the car. This isn't a drive by shooting. It's not a rape, it's not a burglary, it's not a robbery. She is targeted. Not only that the killer clown takes great efforts to cover their identity. They never utter a word, which means they don't want their voice to be heard. This has to be someone that knows her, or is obsessed with her, or has been watching her. And my guess would be she knows them too. Agree or disagree?

No, absolutely agree.

No, absolutely agree.

This is a cold, calculated and well thought out I mean, the steps that were taken to shield the identity of the shooter from anybody around were very well planned out, and all indications are that these two people would know each other.

The first thing I would be doing is trying to get the make and model of that vehicle that the killer was driving, and going to every grocery store in about a ten to fifteen mile vicinity that sales balloons or flowers. You know, there's always that balloon and flower section typically in grocery stores. Definitely flowers, first move, and looking for forensics. For all I know, the clown was wearing gloves.

The witnesses that the scene said that the clown just turned around, walked back to the car, got into the white price of the baron, and just drove away very calmly. A chrys a little bear in color white. Doctor Angela Arnold, psychiatrist joining me out of the Atlanta jurisdiction, Doctor Angela. The fact that this woman, this mother, was shot twice in the mouth. Now, I know a lot of people think that that's just let me just say by accident, not that the shooting is by accident, but that the shooting in the mouth, I think it's on purpose.

Now, I know a lot of people think that that's just let me just say by accident, not that the shooting is by accident, but that the shooting in the mouth, I think it's on purpose.

But shot in the mouth, it was very much on purpose. The clown wanted to distigure. The clown wanted to make sure that she was dead. It was very thought out and calculated. It's always is one where someone shooting.

But shot in the mouth, it was very much on purpose. The clown wanted to distigure. The clown wanted to make sure that she was dead. It was very thought out and calculated. It's always is one where someone shooting.

Well, I'm talking about the fact that she was shot in the mouth, not just shot in the chest or the head, but she was shot twice in the mouth, and I find that very very significant to correct. Nurmi, you represented Jody Arius. She shot Travis Alexander. I know you said she didn't fine have it your way, but he was stabbed twenty nine times, I think, and shot in the head. It's significant when the shooter picks the head, the face in this case, the mouth in which they shoot the victim. And I think in your case, Areas was at close range to Travis Alexander, she knew she was shooting him in the head. In this case, the clown was at close range. Crime Stories with Nancy Grace. You know, sometimes it just feels like there ain't no justice. A jealous mistress dresses up like a clown and delivers flowers, balloons, and a bullet to the wife of her lover as the wife mother. That's right, This wife is a mother, answers the front a door. And now, in their wisdom, the Florida Justice officials have released her. Sheila Keene One pled guilty to second degree murder after she admits she dressed up like a clown, even clutching balloons and flowers in hand, and gunning down a woman shooting her in the face on the doorstep of her own home. But just eighteen months after that guilty plea, she walks free. Yes, she's out of jail. What happened that faithful day? Marlene Warren goes to the door. She thinks she's getting a surprise, flowers and balloons. What she gets a surprise? All right? She gets shot dead twice in the mouth. Normie, don't you think your client? Jody aris aside, it is significant when someone is shot close range, specifically in the mouth. That is a deep psychological uh, it's a neon sign to me.

Well, it certainly adds a personal anger element to it. Right, It's not just a matter of killing. It's a matter of disfiguring, naming, and making sure that person life and their deaths will never be the same. It is a intensely personal way of shooting someone.

Well, another thing pointing at the mouth. You want to make sure she Marlene Warren never says another word. But why to doctor Catherine Maloney, deputy medical examiner joining me out of Erie County, Buffalo, Is there any way a person could live if they have been shot front to back in the mouth.

It would really depend on the trajectory of the bullet.

It would really depend on the trajectory of the bullet.

So if the bullet goes straight.

So if the bullet goes straight.

Front to back such that it hits the base of the brain, then the person will definitely die because you require the bottom part of your brain to stay alive. If instead, however, the bullet manages to either go to the right or the left, you know, sort of towards through the side of the head, it's possible that the person could survive, but it would be a very long and prolonged process to kind of put them back together again.

So To George Skiro, DNA really on the forefront of DNA Forensic Scientists, Lab Director Scales Biological Labs, George Skiro, if she's when Marlene goes to the door, she opens the door. If the clown is wearing gloves, what's the likelihood we're going to get any DNA off the balloons of the flowers.

If the clown is wearing gloves, what's the likelihood we're going to get any DNA off the balloons of the flowers.

Now, Mancy, it depends on the person who was dressed as the clown handled the items beforehand without gloves, then there may be some DNA present. But of course in order to do that, you have to find the gloves, and you need to find the person so that you could then compare the DNA to that person.

Well, another issue is if the clown went and bought the flowers and the balloons, say in the grocery store, would they have been wearing the gloves at the time of the purchase. Their DNA could be on the balloons, could be on the flowers. What would that be touch DNA.

In order to overcome that, it takes either a great amount of training in high stress situations and a great amount of planning. So this was somebody who did not allow the events taking place to change or manipulate the behavior beyond what they had intended to do, and that was remain calm and cool and get in and out and it was it's cold.

Misplaced your gun. Remind me to circle back to misplacing your gun. The so much right here, Stop everything. This woman has a whiteless saber. It's abandoned a Wendix parking lot and it's got orange fibers in it and long brown hair in it. That's a coincidence. I don't think so, so, Levi Paige. Why would a completely unknown woman what suddenly dress up like a clown not say a word and gun down Marlane? Who is Sheila King?

You know what, can you just surprise me one time a co worker? They have an affair according to co workers, and you know you can't keep that kind of thing a secret. Kurt and Army, could you just one time surprise me and it not be a love triangle with your co worker?

Well?

Well?

I guess not, because that's clearly what the case was here. And we saw we talked about that personalization element before, and we can kind of see that correlation and that puzzle come together.

And just like in you know other situations similar to this, You know, the first place that anybody's going to look as close to the home and then work out.

So when they start close and they identify something like this, you know, a marital infidelity boy, that's going to grab their attention right away. And there's no way to hide that stuff from people.

Mairitual infidelity and the white lists. Saber was actually stolen. So in the stolen whiteless Saber found abandoned at a Winding Sea parking lot. What is the likelihood Georgia Sciro, the lab director of Scales Biological Lab, Inc. That You're going to find orange hair from a wig and long brown hair that they say it's similar to what was used, but without the wig, how can they make a comparison? George Giro, Well.

Nancy, what they can do is they can take those fibers, those orange fibers, and run a series of chemical and microscopic analyzes on them to determine what their chemical makeup is, what's the structure of the fiber, what type of dye was used, and that can give investigative information, and also the hair itself can also provide some forensic information that might be of value.

If that hair is still in evidence, couldn't it be compared even without a root? Couldn't you get mitochondrial DNA from the hair found in the stolen the saber and try to match it up to the mistress.

That's correct, Natcy. Mitochondrial DNA would be the type of analysis that would be used to make that type of comparison.

Crime stores with Nancy Grace Joseph ORNs. That's the mom. Marlene's son was eating breakfast at their Wellington family home with friends that May when a person dressed as a clown rang the doorbell at the front door. His mother got the balloons when she opened the door, and she responded, how nice, just before she was shot in the face. And this monster, this she monster is walking free. Think of all the time and effort she went to to dress up like a clown, even painting her face and wearing some crazy wig to gun down her lover's wife at the front door with the family home. King Warren was long suspected to be the killer clown, but it wasn't until twenty seven years later when improved DNA testing actually tied her to evidence found in the getaway car and that led to her arrest. Orange fibers found in the convertible reportedly stolen from Michael's car lot a month before the shooting. Michael as in husband Michael, what else do we know? So they move away from the jurisdiction. She changes her name. He gets rid of the car a lot and they start a restaurant called the Purple Cow, far far away from the murder. Wow, sounds a little bit like they're on the run. Now, there's another report. At the time of the shooting, he was in fact in a car with the group of guys on the interstate Take a listen now. To unmask the killer clown.

This is what we know. According to the detectives on the case, they say DNA advances since the time of Marlene's murder, combined with other evidence, made this case viable at trial. To George Skiro, a special guest of joining Us at DNA Expert Lab director at the Scales Biological Lab, Inc. George Sciro, what do they mean by advances in DNA technology, Well, Nancy, there's been.

A lot of advancements in the last several years as far as the DNA analysis goes. However, in this case, mitochondrial DNA analysis is for forensic cases has probably been around since the mid nineties, So unless they use some of the newer genetic genealogy technologies in this case, it seems like it's pretty much standard mitochondrial.

DNA in this What we are learning is that the killer clown investigators used DNA from hair samples to make a cold case arrest. Because at one moment, the alleged killer, the mistress, Sheila Keene Warren, is on her way to visit her mom in Vermont. The next minute, she has been handcuffed and plays in the back of a Virginia Sheriff's cruiser. She's saying, where am I going, why am I under arrest? She's sitting back there in her jeans and flip flops. When she's told she's under arrest because of a murder, she immediately puts her head down and refuses to answer any further questions. Now, this is what we know DNA based on hair samples. Again to George Sciro, the lab director Skills Biological Labs, Inc. Try to explain that to me and regular people talk when we say hair samples have managed to solve a twenty seven year old cold case murder by a killer clown of all things, what are they saying.

Wellncy, what they're saying is that this mitochondrial DNA that was found in the hair samples in the vehicle match the mitochondrial DNA profile of Sheila Key Warren. And this is not like the normal type of DNA that we hear about every day. This one isn't as specific because it's passed along maternal lines within the family.

We also know now that the clown was absolutely wearing gloves, a bulb nose, and a painted smile over a white face. We also know that a pistol was the murder weapon. I don't know about you guys, But if I had a gun, I don't think I would misplace it. The only person I've ever heard of misplacing, not that it was stolen, but misplaced a gun was Robert Blake, who was acquitted by a jury in the murder of his wife, Bonnie Lee Bakley. Well he killed her just I hope the jury hears that. But I've never heard of another case where a weapon was misplaced. That's what she says. We know to take us collected samples of Sheila Keane's hair, vials of her blood, and a search warrant because she was a suspect at the time. Now, when her apartment was searched, LEEVI page what was found in the apartment that can help me out on this DNA comparison.

We know that there was a court ordered search of her home. In the apartment, there were fibers from a bright orange wig, not the wig, but fibers and clothing that police were checking from bloodstains. Similar bright red orange fibers were found in the stolen the Saber, the FBI Crime Lab, that's where you come in, Jeff Cortesi, the FBI Crime Lab say matches were made to fibers collected from the getaway car through a precise DNA connection, that Sheila Keane is a possible source of the hairs. What does that mean to you?
