The time on this is approximate. Witnesses say that Steven Nix’s uncle, Leslie Moore, who is a Deputy Sheriff in Blount County, AL, was already on-scene when EMS personnel arrived. Witnesses also say that Deputy Moore was on-duty that morning at Oneonta Dam, which is approximately 30 minutes away from Steven & Breana’s house. EMS arrived at 12:18 PM, so Deputy Moore would have left the dam no later than 11:48 AM, indicating that Breana Noojin Nix was likely dead by that time.

The 911 call recording has not been released to the public due to HIPAA laws, but we do know that Steven Nix called 911 at twelve minutes past noon.

According to an anonymous source, EMS personnel arrived at Steven Nix & Breana Noojin Nix’s house four minutes after they were dispatched.

According to Brittany Noojin, Steven Nix called her mother, Ginger Thomas, and asked if she was sitting down. He then told her that her daughter, Breana, had killed herself.

The time is approximate. Brittany left immediately after Steven Nix called her. It was normally a 25 minute drive, but she traveled at a high speed and ran red lights to get there as quickly as she could. She estimated that it took 19 to 20 minutes to get there. When she arrived, Steven’s parents, Geoff Nix and Debbie Nix, along with his sister, Eady Nix, were already there.

After unsuccessful efforts to revive her, including the use of an intraosseous device in her leg, Breana was pronounced dead. According to witnesses, her body was already cold when emergency responders arrived.

Time is approximate. Brittany Noojin noted that Eady Nix wasn’t at the house when Breana Noojin Nix was pronounced dead, and didn’t return for about an hour.

Time is approximate. Steven Nix called Brittany Noojin to tell her that the reason there was a call from him at 7:53 that morning to Breana was because he wanted to pull a prank on her. He didn’t specify what the prank was. While he had her on the phone, he told her that he went through Breana’s phone and found searches for “how to kill yourself” and “how to kill your dogs.”

Brittany Noojin and her mom, Ginger Thomas, along with Steven Nix and his parents, Geoff Nix and Debbie Nix, go to the funeral home to make arrangements for Breana Noojin Nix’s burial and service. Brittany believes Breana’s body was at the funeral home at this time.

When Brittany Noojin arrived at Steven Nix and Breana Noojin Nix’s house, Steven’s parents, Geoff Nix and Debbie Nix, and his sister, Eady Nix, were already there. Steven took Brittany into a back bedroom and told her that his sister had been going through things in the guest room and had found two vials of Fentanyl, which he showed her. He also had found a Tide Pod bag of needles, which she didn’t see. Later, a friend asked for photos of the vials, which Steven sent to her. She compared the vials to Fentanyl vial used at Princeton Medical Center, the hospital where Breana Noojin Nix worked as a nurse. They didn’t match. A person at the hospital stated that they had never seen such vials at the hospital before. After talking with Steven in the back room, Brittany and Steven went out on the front porch where his parents and sisters were. Brittany said she was going back to the funeral home to do Breana’s hair and makeup. Steven’s parents begged her not to go, telling her they didn’t want her to have to see Breana after the autopsy.

Brittany Noojin went over to the funeral home to do Breana’s hair and makeup. When she got there, staff members showed her the state of Breana Noojin Nix’s body. There were bruises all over her legs, feet, arms, hands, and torso. The bruises were new and dark, though there were some that looked faded as if they were several days old. Her right hand had defensive marks and bruises. Brittany had seen Breana in a sleeveless top several days prior to her death, and those bruises weren’t on her. More disturbing, though, were the fresh needle marks all over her body that were made with a large gauge needle. Over 80 of them that they could count. There were no old track marks on Breana’s body. Brittany then photographed her sister’s body as evidence. These photos have been shared with me (Gavin). I have seen them and can testify that Brittany’s description of the wounds on Breana’s body is accurate. She wishes not to disclose them publicly.

Breana Noojin Nix’s memorial service began in the morning with a family visitation.

During the funeral, Brittany Noojin noticed that Steven Nix was on his phone nearly the entire time. He didn’t greet or speak to anybody. She said he looked to pretend to cry, but there weren’t any tears.

Brittany Noojin expressed that she wanted a few items that belonged to Breana Noojin Nix. Specifically, Brittany wanted a purse that she had gifted her sister in 2019. Steven asked Brittany to come over and pick up the purse. When she got there, there was a smaller purse that Brittany sensed Steven really wanted her to open. When she did, there was a used needle inside. There was blood on the needle that was still bright. The only other item in the purse was a receipt from 2017. Brittany states that Breana only used the purse she gave her from 2019 on. After the discovery, Brittany asked Steven to reenact the events the day Breana died. She then asked if she could have a sweatshirt or something else that was her sister’s. She went directly to Breana’s underwear drawer, opened it up, and “discovered” more needles and a bloody napkin. Brittany knew that they hadn’t been in that drawer three days earlier because she and her mom had gone through that drawer looking for underwear for Breana to be dressed in at the funeral home.

The Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences published a Toxicological Analysis Report in the case of the death of Breana Noojin Nix. The report shows 43 ng/mL of Amitriptyline, 73 ng/mL of Amphetamine, the presence of Sertraline and its metabilite, norsertraline. Breana was prescribed anti-anxiety and anti-depression medications, including Adderall. This accounts for the therapeutic levels of these drugs in her system. During their investigation, detectives went through all of her medications and found that it didn’t appear that Breana was abusing prescription drugs. However, in addition to these results, the toxicology report found 5.1ng/mL of Fentanyl in Breana’s blood. I’ve (Gavin) been told that 3 ng/mL would have been a lethal dose.

By the end of June, Steven Nix had received the money from Breana Noojin Nix’s life insurance policy. It is estimated that the policy paid out around $160,000. Shortly thereafter, Steven was noticeably making lavish purchases. He had a concrete pad poured on his property and had a new shop built. He bragged on facebook about upgrades he got for his pickup truck. He purchased a new zero turn lawnmower. He bought some expensive ostrich skin boots. Witnesses have said he rarely leaves his house, and is likely living off of the insurance money.

More than six months after the death of his wife, Breana Noojin Nix’s headstone is finally ordered by Steve. He tells people that he ordered it from overseas, so it would take a while to arrive.
