Pauline Brown was described as a family-oriented woman and hard worker. She was raped and killed by Demetrius Frazier on Nov. 26, 1991.

Prosecutors said on Nov. 27, 1991, that Frazier, then 19, broke into Brown’s apartment through a window while she was asleep. Prosecutors said he demanded money and raped Brown at gunpoint after she gave him $80 from her purse. He then shot her in the head. He later returned to the apartment to have a snack and look for money, prosecutors said.

Alabama is scheduled to execute murderer and rapist Demetrius Terrance Frazier by nitrogen gas at 6 p.m. Thursday. He was convicted in the 1991 rape and murder of 41-year-old Pauline Brown.
