Police Check Authenticity Of Ex-NFL Star Sergio Brown's Disturbing Videos

The search for ex-NFL star Sergio Brown continues after he went missing around the same time that his mother was found dead near a creek less than 100 yards from her house over the weekend.

He has posted several videos to what seems to be a burner account, referencing the Disney-Pixar movie “Finding Nemo” as well as one of him singing and referencing death. Now, the police are checking the authenticity of those videos.

Police in suburban Chicago are checking on the authenticity of Instagram videos that appear to show the former NFL player discussing the recent death of his mother, who died following an assault.

Per ESPN, "Maywood police spokesperson Carmen Rivera said in an email Tuesday, acknowledging police were aware of the videos and were investigating. Rivera did not immediately return messages Wednesday seeking an update."

The first video posted to his apparent burner Instagram account intplayerwithapassport, Brown said “Fake news, fake news. It has to be the FBI that came into my house on Bob Marley’s death day. With the 511 haze and gas — unwarranted. They kidnapped me twice from my home. The Maywood, Ill. Police Department… it had to be the FBI or the Maywood Police.”

In the second video, he referenced the 2003 children’s film “Finding Nemo” while also referencing a missing persons report, seemingly filed by family members on Saturday.

“Just keep swimming, just keep swimming,” he said on repeat. “What the f–k? Missing? They ain’t never seen ‘Finding Nemo’? What the f–k is going on? This is traumatic. Lucky I don’t have to say a joke. You … what the f–k? Just keep swimming,” he continued before laughing uncontrollably.

And in a third video, the ex-NFL star referenced death when singing the lyrics to Drake’s song “Legend”.

“Oh my god, oh my god, if I die, I’m a legend,” he sings in the video posted to his burner Instagram account intplayerwithapassport.

Sergio Brown’s brother, Nick, posted to his Instagram on Saturday, September 16 to let the public know that he was actively searching for his brother, 35, who played for the NFL, and mother, Myrtle Brown, 73. “Folks my mom Myrtle Brown and brother Sergio Brown are missing,” he typed. “I’m not waiting another hour. Please share! If you see them or one of them please let me or the Maywood Police Office know!!”

“Maywood Police Officers initiated a missing person report and began making attempts to locate both individuals,” police said in a news release as well.

“Her family came and knocked on the door and was looking for her because they put out a police report because she was missing for 72 hours. So, we tried to help them as much as possible,” neighbor Carlos Cortez told WBBM.

The following day, Sunday, September 17, Myrtle Brown was found dead near a creek less than 100 yards from her house. The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office determined she had died from injuries related to an assault, and the manner of death was ruled a homicide, according to spokesperson Natalia Derevyanny.

Sergio Brown played for the Indianapolis Colts, Buffalo Bills, and the New England Patriots while he was in the NFL.
