Actor Kills Mom with Samurai Sword

Michael Brea had minor roles in the ABC television show “Ugly Betty” and the movie “Step Up 3D.”  However,  he is  now achieving more fame,  but not from more television shows or movies. Recently he was charged with the of killing his mother with a samurai sword inside their apartment on Nov. 23, 2010, in Prospect Heights.
            Brea told the police that he had seen the devil in his mother.  According to police, he killed his mother shouting “sinner,” “repent,” and neighbors say they heard him yelling, “You never accepted Jesus.”
            However, neighbors are upset with the police about this particular situation.  They say the police waited about an hour before entering their apartment.  One neighbor said that he could hear her groaning, but she was not dead.  He also said that if police would have entered right away, Michael Brea’s mother, Yannick Brea, would have still been alive today. 
            According to friends and neighbors, Brea was a friendly man with no known history of mental illness.  However, Brea has been arrested for murder and is getting psychiatric treatment at Kings County Hospital.
