When a 16-year-old high school student named Cassie Stoddart was found dead inside a house on the outskirts of Pocatello, Idaho, in September 2006, the entire community was shaken to its core. The authorities focused on the individuals whom she met in the hours prior to her murder and were led to two of her schoolmates — Brian Draper and Torey Adamcik. Their separate interrogations allowed the detectives to crack the case wide open. Brian’s parents, Kerry and Pam Draper, were shocked when the truth about their son’s actions was uncovered. In Hulu’s ‘The Scream Murder: A True Teen Horror Story,’ the parents feature and share their thoughts on the entire ordeal.
Brian Draper’s Family Stood by Him When He Was Brought to Justice For Cassie’s Murder
Born around 1990, Brian Draper was adopted by a set of loving parents — Pam and Kerry Draper. While raising him in Pocatello, Idaho, with his sister Tiffany, his parents enrolled him in Pocatello High School, where he became friends with Cassie Stoddart and Torey Adamcik. According to reports, Brian hatched a murderous plan with Torey to attack 16-year-old Cassie, who was house-sitting alone at a secluded property on the outskirts of Pocatello on the night of September 22, 2006. After the detectives were led to Brian, they interviewed him in the presence of his parents.

Brian led the investigators to the spot where he and Torey had buried several pieces of evidence, including blood-stained clothes, knives, and a shocking videotape in which they discussed their plans of killing Cassie and potentially carrying out a school shooting. Both Pam and Kerry were shocked to learn of their son’s dark side, yet they reportedly continued to provide him emotional support. Ultimately, Brian was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
