Center of Attention

In his driver's license photo, Jason Derek Brown looks like a typical Southern California surfer-tan, with spiky hair, a red hoodie, and an open smile. The photo looks completely out of place on the FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list where it's been since December, 8, 2007. For eight of those years, Jason appeared directly beside Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden is long gone, but Jason is still wanted for armed robbery and murder. For years, his sister, Jami D. Brown Martin has watched the true crime programs and read the amateur investigative blogs devoted to Jason, his crime, and the efforts to apprehend him knowing the story wasn't as simple, nor was it just Jason's. To be the sister, brother, or relative of one of the world's most wanted men is to live every day with the horrible truth and many consequences of his brutal act. CENTER OF ATTENTION is the story of a former Mormon missionary turned murderer. It is also a riveting look behind the facade of the genetically blessed, seemingly prominent and pious Brown family of Laguna Beach, California. It is a tale of the family patriarch, John Brown, who disappeared without a trace ten years before his son. More important, it is the gripping and ultimately hopeful story of the sister of one of the world's most wanted fugitives and her journey to accept that despite being a product of the same crazy environment as her brother, her life and path are her own.
