Michael Brea

Michael Brea, a small-time actor who once appeared on Ugly Betty, has been taken into custody for allegedly chopping off the head of his mother with a samurai sword.

"Michael was yelling, 'Repent, repent, sinner, sinner,' over and over again," a neighbor told the Daily News. "He was screaming, 'You never accepted Jesus.' It was real loud."

The victim, identified as 55-year-old Yannick Brea, was dead when officers arrived Tuesday at 2:20 a.m. Sources told New York station WPIX that the body was found hacked and decapitated.

In addition to "Ugly Betty," the Haitian-American actor appeared in the movie "Step-Up 3-D" and starred in a campaign for the energy drink Full Throttle, according to a Haiti Internet movie database website.
