Fatal shooting near 25th and Chambers
Wimberly has been charged in another non-fatal shooting, and investigators learned "Brazzoni was present for the shooting and ultimately conveyed (the victim) to the hospital for medical assistance."
As part of the investigation into Brazzoni's homicide, officers recovered security video from inside of Brazzoni's lower unit. The complaint says it depicts Wimberly and another man in a conversation. According to the complaint, "Wimberly tells (another person) that he knows he can't do it here, and (the other person) tries to convince Wimberly that he can't do it anywhere." Moments later, Wimberly is heard saying, 'She's gotta go. Listen man, listen, I'm in a jam."
The complaint indicates Wimberly then references a plan, picks up a handgun, points to the front porch where Brazzoni was located and said something inaudible. The video ends at 4:10 a.m.

Wimberly pleaded not guilty to the charges against him in this case on Sept. 18. He is due back in court on Nov. 15.
