In the quiet area of Glencoe, Arkansas, a chain of events unfolded that ended in the tragic death of Brandon Lee Chrisco. On May 31, 2023, the 27-year-old male was found with at least one gunshot wound. Authorities were called to the scene, where the Fulton County Coroner's office ultimately pronounced him deceased. Brandon, born on March 27, 1996, in Jonesboro, Arkansas, was a former heavy equipment operator and had served in the United States Navy.
He was known by loved ones as someone who cherished his family, enjoyed fishing and swimming, and was often the life of the party.
The investigation into Brandon's death moved swiftly, and it was quickly ruled a homicide. The Fulton County Sheriff's Office, with assistance from the Arkansas State Police and the Salem Police Department, began to piece together the circumstances surrounding the shooting. Their work led to the identification of two suspects who were taken into custody in connection with this case and another separate death in the county.
In the wake of the investigation, two women were arrested. Tabitha Pebler was charged with 2nd Degree Murder, and her bond was set at $25,000. Another woman, Stacie Hickman, faced more severe charges of 1st Degree Murder, Abuse of a Corpse, and Committing a Felony with a Firearm. Her bond was set at a much higher amount of $1,000,000. The Fulton County Sheriff expressed his gratitude for the rapid resolution of the case, crediting the diligent work of his staff and the assisting law enforcement agencies.
