Alysia, Adams’ wife, reportedly testified in court papers that her husband battered Brownfield and held her up by her arms. She was standing still, with scarcely open eyes. Following that, Adams reportedly put her on the ground and gave her three more chest punches.
After that, Brownfield stayed put. This incident occurred at Alysia and Ivon Adams’ residence at 225 West Nebraska Avenue in Cyril.
On December 26, about 1:00 a.m., Ivon Adams left his house to bury Brownfield adjacent to a fence line that bordered their former home in the Rush Springs neighborhood. According to court records, Ivon told Alysia that he spread a sizable broken branch over the burial spot.
Brownfield was reported missing when a mailman discovered Brownfield’s 5-year-old sister outside the Adams house on January 10 without any adult supervision. The postal carrier notified the Cyril Police Department, and a search was launched for the girl’s location.
