It has been nearly a year since a baby girl was found dead inside a hotel drawer, and her family continues to push for answers.
The Harris County Sheriff’s Office reported that the tragedy occurred at a Days Inn off Rancho Mission Drive near Mission Bend on May 26, 2024. No one has been charged with a crime since the tragedy.

KPRC 2 reporter Corley Peel spoke with Brookelynn’s parents who both say they are innocent and her great-grandmother, who is demanding justice.

Luann Simon, Brookelynn’s great-grandmother, described the baby as a bright-eyed girl who had only graced the earth for three months.
On that fateful day, Simon rushed to the Days Inn in Mission Bend, where Brookelynn’s body was discovered in a drawer inside a hotel room. Simon noted that Brookelynn’s parents and her older brother, who was about 1 year old, had been staying at the hotel. Brookelynn’s mother is Simon’s granddaughter. Simon shared information from Brookelynn’s death certificate.
“The coroner’s office has ruled it a homicide due to suffocation, due to her being enclosed in a dresser drawer,” Simon stated.
Corley spoke with Brookelynn’s mother on the phone. She said Brookelynn was being kept in an open drawer in the hotel because she tended to roll over. She explained that she fell asleep while Brookelynn’s father was giving the baby a bath. When she woke up, the father was gone, and she assumed Brookelynn was with him. She mentioned she had never heard a baby cry in the room and the drawer was closed. When the father returned from the store without Brookelynn, he opened the closed drawer where they found Brookelynn unresponsive.

Corley spoke with Brookelynn’s father who insisted he had nothing to do with his daughter’s death, stating he was not present when it happened.
The mother reported that she has been cooperative with Child Protective Services (CPS) and passed required drug tests after drugs were found in the hotel room. Simon expressed her frustration, stating she is still waiting for the investigation to reveal the truth.

“For them to walk into a crime scene with a dead baby and drugs in the room, no one gets arrested, no charges have been filed, and it’s been almost a year,” Simon lamented. “We can’t even really put this baby to rest because nobody’s paid for this death. Nobody has taken blame for this.”

The parents of a baby girl who was allegedly found dead in a Houston motel have been arrested over a year since their daughter's passing, according to the Harris County sheriff.
Sheriff Gonzalez announced the arrests of three people on X: Destiny Campos, Jeremy Fancher, and Marilyn Monk.

Campos and Fancher are reportedly charged with murder for the 2024 death of their three-month-old daughter, Brookelyn. Campos was booked into the Harris County Jail Friday night, and Fancher was taken to the Tom Green County Jail on Saturday.
According to the sheriff, Fancher's current girlfriend, Marilyn Monk, was also arrested and booked into the Tom Green County Jail. She was reportedly charged with Hindering Apprehension.
Three-month-old Brookleyn was found dead inside a motel room, allegedly inside a closed dresser drawer. The tragedy happened at the Days Inn near Mission Bend in May 2024.

Records from the medical examiner's office ruled the infant's death a homicide by suffocation.

Sheriff Gonzalez says Destiny Campos and Jeremy Fancher had lived at the motel for over a year.
The infant would allegedly sleep inside a dresser drawer, which was where she was found deceased.

Dad's girlfriend
 
The mother was 21 and the father was 38. SMH wth is wrong with people
My Mom was 27 and my Dad was a month shy of 52 when I came along, the youngest of their four kids, his seven kids. Nothing hinky. Nothing that left either of them in an altered state. Just two somewhat damaged people that found each other and made each other better people. The marriage didn't last, but their deep friendship did. My Mom and Stepmom became best friends, which lasted from before Dad died in 1983 until Mary died 2023...
 
my parents were also a "may/dec." marriage they had 5 children before they seperated and later on divorced (catholics and untill my mother changed her religion divorce wasn't possible). my mother re-married but my dad never did as catholic don't recognize divorce..
 
Lisa Farrell, the baby’s grieving grandmother, said the couple shares blame.

“I just want the baby to get her justice, you know what I’m saying? They were both wrong, they both did that baby dirty, they both should be in jail,” Farrell told KHOU 11. "They all could've done something, but nobody did nothing."
Farrell says Jeremy Fancher was her partner for seven years, but he started dating her daughter in 2019. Farrell no longer has contact with either of them.


“I try to stay away from it. It’s disgusting, it’s embarrassing, I’m embarrassed,” Farrell said.
More details were revealed about the allegations against Campos during her probable cause hearing on Saturday.

“The allegations are they left their four-month-old child in a closed drawer multiple times and would intentionally stuff a towel around the edges to muffle the sound,” prosecutors said.

Campos admitted she'd done it several times, according to prosecutors.

“And indicated reasons why she was placed in there, one of which was to aid in the defendant and co-defendant to have personal time together,” the probable cause magistrate said.


According to court documents, a motel housekeeper noticed the baby crying in the drawer several times while Campos was sleeping. She told police that she confronted the young mother and tried to get hotel management to report Campos to CPS.

It was revealed in the hearing that Campos is seven months pregnant.
Farrell has a message to those handling the case.

“Look at the facts. I know one’s a complete messup, but they need to look at her because I’ve been dealing with her a long time, and something’s broken in there,” Farrell said.
