- Robert Eugene Brashers (March 13, 1958 – January 13, 1999) was an American serial killer and rapist. In 2018, he was identified by CeCe Moore, chief genetic genealogist at Parabon Nanolabs, via genetic genealogy website GEDmatch as the murderer of Genevieve Zitricki in 1990, the rapist of a 14-year-old girl in 1997, and the killer of mother and daughter Sherri and Megan Scherer in 1998. He was convicted of beating and shooting a woman in Port St. Lucie, Florida, in 1985. He was imprisoned between 1986–1989. In 1990, Genevieve "Jenny" Zitricki (age 28) was raped and murdered in Greenville, South Carolina . In 1992 in Cobb County, Georgia, Brasher was arrested of possessing a stolen firearm and vehicle. He was imprisoned between 1992-1997. In 1997, Brashers attacked and raped a 14-year-old girl in Memphis, Tennessee. In 1998, he murdered Sherri Scherer (age 38, mother) raped and murdered Megan Scherer (age 12, daughter) in Portageville, Missouri. In 1998, he drove his maroon car to a woman's house and attempted to force entry into the home with his gun that was used earlier to murder Sherri and Megan Scherer. The woman was able to keep the door closed, but was shot in the shoulder in the process. Ballistic reports confirmed that the weapon used in this crime was the same gun that was used earlier in the day in Portageville, Missouri. Brashers died in 1999 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he was approached by police officers in Kennett, Missouri for having a vehicle with a stolen tag. His body was exhumed in 2018 in order to collect a DNA sample. His DNA was confirmed to match the DNA evidence from the crime scenes. Each of the victims closely resembled his wife's physical appearance particularly with each victim having the same hairstyle. (en)
