This raw interrogation footage captures every moment of the suspect interview, complete with deception detection techniques, and criminal psychology in true JCS style interrogation. 1. The Background: Key people involved, their relationships, and the motive Defendant: Bree Kristen Kuhn (also referred to as Bree Kuhn), age 34 at the time of the incident (later 37 at trial); U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer stationed at Naval Air Station Pensacola. Victim: Collin James Turner, age 34 (also reported as 33 in some accounts); retired U.S. Marine (14 years of service), stay-at-home father and electrical engineering student; 100% disabled due to traumatic brain injury. Relationship: Married couple living together in Gulf Breeze, Florida, with three children in the home (two young children of the couple and Kuhn’s older child from a prior relationship). Motive/context: Prolonged argument on the day of the incident centered on the children. Turner wanted to take the children out of state; Kuhn opposed this. Kuhn later claimed self-defense and a history of abuse by Turner, citing his TBI and disability. 2. The Crime: Specific details of the event, including date, location and any calculated planning or tampering Date: September 8, 2021. Location: Family home in the 6100 block of Jenks Drive, Gulf Breeze (near Midway), Santa Rosa County, Florida. The shooting occurred in the garage. Sequence (per police and 911 recordings played at trial): 12:53 p.m. – Kuhn called 911 reporting a heated argument over the children. Deputies responded, found no evidence of physical altercation, and left. ~5:00 p.m. – Turner called 911 about another argument. Deputies responded again, found nothing alarming, and left. 6:22 p.m. – Turner called 911 a third time, stating Kuhn had locked him in the garage and tried to break his arm when he attempted to re-enter the house. While on the phone with dispatch, gunshots were heard. Turner said, “She just shot me!” Followed by three additional shots and silence. Kuhn admitted to officers on scene that she shot him. Turner was found deceased in the garage from four gunshot wounds (all entering through the back). The three children were inside the home at the time. Planning/tampering: Kuhn locked Turner in the garage prior to the shooting. No extensive premeditation, staging, or post-act tampering was detailed beyond the locking and the shooting itself during the 911 call. Deputies arrived approximately four minutes after the final call. 3. The Investigation: Suspect behavior, key evidence found (digital or physical) and inconsistencies in stories Suspect behavior: Kuhn was found at the scene in a state of shock. She immediately admitted to deputies, “I shot him… I just shot my husband” and later, “I’m a murderer. You should arrest me.” She claimed self-defense, stating Turner had kicked her foot and that she feared for herself and the children. She was arrested that evening and booked without bond. Key evidence: Multiple 911 call recordings (including the fatal call with audible gunshots and Turner’s statements). Bodycam video from the two earlier deputy responses and the arrest. Physical evidence: Turner’s body with four gunshot wounds to the back (medical examiner testimony). Witness statements, including Kuhn’s brother (who heard parts of the argument over the phone) and texts exchanged that day. Inconsistencies/stories: Kuhn claimed self-defense and a history of abuse by Turner. Defense planned a battered-spouse-syndrome defense with a psychologist but did not call the expert after Kuhn decided not to testify. Prosecutors emphasized no documented prior abuse and that Turner was locked in the garage (not an imminent threat) when shot in the back while on the phone with 911. 4. Conviction and Sentencing: Trial dates, specific verdicts for each defendant, and their final sentences Charges: First-degree premeditated murder (indicted by Santa Rosa County grand jury in October 2021). Trial: Held in Santa Rosa County Circuit Court (Milton, Florida) in September 2024 (four days of testimony, delayed briefly by Hurricane Helene). Jury deliberated a little more than four hours. Verdict (September 27, 2024): Guilty of first-degree premeditated murder. Sentencing (same day, immediately after verdict and victim-impact statements from Turner’s parents): Circuit Judge James Duncan sentenced Kuhn to life in prison without the possibility of parole (mandatory under Florida law for the conviction; death penalty was not pursued). Post-sentencing: Kuhn filed a notice of appeal with the First District Court of Appeal (acknowledged October 2024), seeking review of voir dire, trial proceedings, judgment, and sentence. As of mid-2025 reporting, she was serving the sentence at Lowell Correctional Institution Annex (Ocala/Gainesville area), Florida. No other defendants.
