Brooks Cleary was sentenced to 11 years in prison for charges including concealing a death, making false statements, and interference with government property in connection with the death of his girlfriend, Hailey Johnson. He was not charged with murder.Here's a breakdown of the case:
- The Incident: Hailey Johnson, 21, died in December 2022 in an apartment she shared with Cleary in Marietta, Georgia. Cleary initially told first responders that she had fallen or possibly had a seizure. However, it was later determined that she had been shot in the head.
- Cleary's Actions: Cleary's actions after the shooting raised suspicion. He allegedly moved Hailey's body, hid the gun, and gave conflicting accounts of what happened. A neighbor's 911 call described the scene as a potential murder.
- The Charges: Cleary was charged with concealing the death of another, making false statements, and two counts of interference with government property. He was not charged with murder.
- The Trial and Sentencing: Cleary was found guilty on all counts. The judge expressed concerns about the concealing death charge, noting that it typically applies to cases involving dismemberment or prolonged hiding of a body. However, he allowed the charge to stand. Cleary was sentenced to 11 years in prison, a shorter sentence than the maximum possible.
- Family's Disappointment: Hailey Johnson's family expressed disappointment with the outcome, believing that Cleary should have been charged with murder. They have been advocating for further investigation into the case, alleging that Cleary was abusive and that there was evidence suggesting foul play.
