Brookey Lee West was born in June of 1953 to LeRoy and Christine Smith. Her parents were drug addicts and frequently left her and her younger brother, Travis, alone at home for days on end with no food to eat. When Brookey was seven years old, her mother attempted to kill an ex-boyfriend in a fit of rage with a shotgun at a bar, and subsequently went to prison. Brookey graduated High School and enrolled in the army, but, as soon as Christine was released, moved in once again with her mother.

The mother and daughter duo shoplifted and attended AA meetings meant for Indigenous people in order to meet men. Brookey did and met a man named Howard Simon St. John. Not long after that, Brookey kicked her mother out, and Howard moved in. But their relationship with rife with fighting and substance abuse. She and he also committed insurance fraud together. But, it wasn't until 1994, when both Howard and Christine Smith ended up dead, that anyone would come to know just how criminal and evil Brookey Lee West really was.
