The Georgia teen accused of gunning down her sleeping parents posted TikTok videos looking for sympathy and tried recruiting a true crime influencer to investigate their murders before she was arrested.
Sarah Grace Patrick, 17, posted a series of chilling TikTok videos mourning the deaths of her mother, Kristen Brock, 41, and stepfather, James Brock, 45, and pleading for “prayers for healing” after she allegedly murdered the pair in their Tyus home on Feb. 20, Law & Crime reported.
“If you asked me about my mom and step dad, I’d say I miss them so much,” the accused killer, 16 at the time, wrote in the overlay text of one video featuring herself and family.
“But if you were to ask me on a deeper level, I’d tell you that I just wanna go home.”
The teen also shared a video collage of her mom and stepfather on March 1, writing: “They don’t know it but a year from now me and my 5 year old sister (sic) would find them wrongfully shot dead in our home and won’t get to watch me graduate high school, see me walk down the isle (sic), and couldn’t even say goodbye.”
In another post, Patrick wrote she felt “so home sick,” “missed them so much,” and described her life like a “horror movie that never ends.”
She captioned the video of that post “Should prob delete later.”
The Carroll County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that they are aware of the TikTok account and that it does belong to Patrick, Law & Crime reported.
Her account, @sgrace04282, has since been removed from TikTok.
In another bizarre twist, true crime TikToker @AllegedlyReportedly claims Patrick reached out to her about covering her parents’ murders.
“Why would you ask me to cover a case where you are going to get arrested for taking your parents’ lives,” the creator said in a video, showing messages allegedly from Patrick.
“She messaged me on June 3rd and said, ‘Look up Brock case.’” So I said, ‘Brock Turner? Brock, who?’” the TikToker said.
“She said, ‘Kristin and James Brock.’ They’re my parents, and out of nowhere, a random Thursday night in February, someone came in my house with me and my five-year-old sister and left my parents for me and my five-year-old sister to wake up to.”
The creator — specifying she “did not know” she’d be arrested for their murders a month later — expressed sympathy towards the teen.
Her stepdad’s family friend, Kellie Brown, shared that Patrick contacted her to “speak on her behalf” in a TikTok video about her parents’ murders, according to 11 Alive.
“So, Sarah reached out to me on Sunday, and we spoke on the phone and via text, and she asked me to speak on her behalf about the night on 2/20/2025,” Brown said in a video posted to her account.
Brown said Patrick told her that she did not hear anything unusual the night of the murders, aside from one thing.
“But she did hear James’ L-VAD machine, which is his heart machine, that kept his heart pumping; she did hear that alarm going off throughout the night,” Brown said.
Patrick allegedly wrote in the comments of Brown’s video that she heard the alarm 10 to 20 minutes before going to bed; however, she claimed it blended in with background noise.
The 17-year-old turned herself in at the Carroll County jail on Tuesday after she was charged after she was charged with killing her church-going mother and stepfather.
Their bodies were discovered in bed at their Tyus home by the couple’s 5-year-old daughter, and investigators said the 17-year-old alleged killer was the one to call 911.
Patrick — who will be tried as an adult — has been charged with two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault.
Investigators are still working to discover a motive for the killings.
Even though Patrick has been charged, Carroll County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Ashley Hulsey said investigators aren’t ruling anything out in this case, and are pursuing the possibility that more arrests will be made.
“Any information, no matter how small it may seem, could be just that key that cracks this case wide open,” she said.
If convicted, she faces life in prison without the possibility of parole.
