On May 26, 1990, a person disguised as a clown — complete with an orange wig, white face paint, a red nose, and gloves — carried a bouquet of balloons and a basket of flowers to the front door of Marlene Warren. When Marlene opened the door, this clown, with a red smile painted across the face, said nothing as it handed the delivery to Marlene then lifted a pistol and shot Marlene in the mouth. It would take police twenty-seven years to make an arrest. This is the story of the Killer Clown of Palm Beach.
