Florida 'Killer Clown' Released After Serving Sentence for 1990 Murder

Sheila Keen-Warren, convicted of a bizarre murder case involving a clown disguise, was released from prison 18 months after accepting a plea deal.

Sheila Keen-Warren, 61, was released after pleading guilty to second-degree murder in the 1990 killing of Marlene Warren, her current husband's former wife.
Keen-Warren was arrested in 2017, 27 years after the crime, due to advancements in DNA testing that linked her to the murder.
Despite her guilty plea, Keen-Warren has consistently maintained her innocence, claiming she accepted the plea to avoid a potential life sentence.
The case, known for its unusual circumstances, involved the murderer dressing as a clown and shooting Marlene Warren at her home in front of witnesses.
The release was facilitated by Florida's laws from 1990, which allowed significant sentence reductions for good behavior.
