Sheila Keen-Warren, 61, was released from a Florida prison on November 2, 2024, after pleading guilty to second-degree murder for the 1990 shooting of Marlene Warren, the then-wife of her husband, Michael Warren. Keen-Warren was sentenced to 12 years but had been in custody since 2017, receiving credit for good behavior. Her attorney, Greg Rosenfeld, stated that she accepted the plea deal to avoid a life sentence. The murder case gained notoriety when Marlene Warren was shot by a clown who rang her doorbell, an incident that shocked the local community and drew national attention.

Evidence linking Keen-Warren to the crime included DNA and a purchase of a clown suit, which was a crucial piece of evidence in the case. Michael Warren, who was suspected of having an affair at the time of the murder, has never been charged in connection with his wife's death. The case remained unsolved for many years until new evidence emerged, leading to Keen-Warren's arrest. The release of Keen-Warren has reignited discussions about the case and the implications of plea deals in the justice system. Many are left questioning the fairness of her sentence and the circumstances surrounding the original crime. [5e0748fa]
