Cop charged in missing teen murder case

Last edited Wed Feb 15, 2023, 08:07 AM - Edit history (1)

GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — Arrest warrants show new details relating to a now-former Doraville Police officer who was arrested in connection to the death of a 16-year-old girl.

Last week, Susana Morales' remains were found near the Gwinnett-Barrow County line. She had been missing for more than six months. She had initially been reported missing on July 26, 2022.

Miles Bryant, 22, is being charged with concealing the death of Morales and false report of a crime. He is being held at the Gwinnett Detention Center without bond. He was arrested while he was off-duty, according to the Gwinnett County Police Department.

11Alive obtained the arrest warrants for Bryant, which revealed the following new information about the case:

He lived on Windscape Village Lane in Norcross, near the location where Morales' lived and originally went missing.
Bryant dumped Morales' naked body in the woods, according to police.
He previously gave a false report on July 27 that his personal car had been broken into and a gun had been taken from inside. The warrant lists Bryant is "known or suspected of having been convicted" for rape, murder, and other felony crimes. However, police explained that this is customary for instances where they are not sure how the victim died.

caused me a double take.

- warrant lists Bryant is "known or suspected of having been convicted" for rape, murder, and other felony crimes. However, police explained that this is customary for instances where they are not sure how the victim died.


'having been convicted' would seem to be a rather definitive, yes or no, thing?

The police dept. ignored their complaints as "not having enough evidence" even though he was on video checking door locks of the women.
