Arrest warrants have shed more light on why a since-fired police officer in Georgia has been accused of crimes in connection with the July 2022 disappearance and subsequent death of a 16-year-old girl.
Detective Angela Carter applied for an arrest warrant, documents show, and said that Miles Bryant, of Norcross, lived “in close proximity to [the] victim and dumped her naked body in the woods.”
The detective said that the accused “is known or suspected of” rape, murder, and other felonies. As of Wednesday, authorities have not filed rape or murder charges. Concealing the death of another in the state of Georgia is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison upon conviction; a false report of a crime is a misdemeanor offense.
“Accused did, willfully and knowingly gave a false report of a crime to a law enforcement officer by falsely reporting that his vehicle was broken into and his gun was stolen,” the warrant said. Documents listed Bryant’s vehicle as a black Ford F-150.
The initial charges against Bryant came after investigators confirmed Morales’ remains were found in a wooded area along Highway 316. That discovery was made more than six months after Morales’ family reported her missing.
