COBB COUNTY, Ga. -- Dennis Freeman, 36, and his wife should be celebrating their 11th wedding anniversary today and his wife’s birthday, but instead the Freeman family is mourning Dennis’ death.

“She’s really distraught, she’s in bad shape,” said the victim’s brother, Michael Freeman.

Police said Freeman was bludgeoned and murdered at a firewood lot where he worked Friday night.

“He was just working day by day, trying to save some money and, you know, do everything that every other family does to pay their bills and support his family,” said Michael.

Freeman said the suspect, Roger Brown, was urinating near a dumpster near the lot. The owner told Brown to stop. “It was his lot, his wife and kids were standing right there. He didn’t want him to be doing that in front of his kids,” explained Freeman.

Witnesses said Brown walked away and then came back a few minutes later with a hammer. Officials said Brown hit Freeman over the head and killed him.

“It would take a very demon-istic person to do something like that to such a good person over nothing,” said Freeman.

Michael Freeman said his brother had no insurance and hadn’t been able to get it after surviving a battle with cancer 12 years ago. Freeman was his family’s sole source of support and now his wife and stepson will have to go without him.

“He was just an outstanding person. One of the best brothers someone could ever have,” said Michael.

Brown is charged with felony murder and aggravated assault. Police said he has a criminal record.
