Lewis was found clutching two small bags of a substance, which police said proved to be crack cocaine. In a des moines register article dated christmas day 1995, lewis’ mother, rosa lee brown, said her son had been living at home with her and that she’d spoken to him around midnight, just 40 minutes before his body was found.
