She was only 16! So young and innocent to the world. This world is fd up sometimes.
Rest In Peace sweetheart
I’m so sorry this world failed you.
🙏🏽🕊🌹
As a parent,,,,,I’m terrified everyday I send my babies out into the world especially bc the ones we should entrust betray us daily!
Innocent, not so!! She was using crytal meth.. i would not ever dare to touch that 💩. There is zero innocence when smoking meth!! Nay...nay
@@Jugojuice28just make sure you bbies aint smoking meth like these dead girl was.
When I was 16 yrs old I had 2 classmates that was murdered while skipping school. I was terrified after that and never skipped school.😮
Two 16 year olds? Boys or girls?
*that WERE murdered
When you were 16 and in school, did you skip English class?
In some states , they have to wait 48 hours before being declared missing. Not sure about this state. 😊
@@user-qr2kh6uh6q NO. I do have 2 degrees, own my own home, and have my own business for 23 yrs. 😁
Pretty open and shut. How is it that a policeman did this? Probably offered her a ride home, and since he was police, she trusted him. Crazy.
Exactly 💯 💯 💯
That weapon wasn’t meant to be left I’m willing to believe it fell and then he couldn’t remember which location he was at to go back!
Hearing the Prosecutor praise the police search angers me more with time. Law enforcement ignored her family and well informed friends of her routine and habits delaying any official search. Thank her friends for their attentive love and determination!
This is the first time I've come to know this case 😢💔
There was a crash alert on her phone and proof she was taken away in a car and they ignored it???
I agree & it angers me too 😠The family was told they had to wait 48 hours because “ teenagers always go missing “ I don’t know if many people know but the sentence “ you have to wait 48 hours before reporting a missing person” is used on TV and never was supposed to be used in police stations. The Suzanne law protects people from the age of 18 to 21 and it is in connection with the amber alert. Anyone under the age of 18 has to be reported to NCIC and there is no waiting period. They also consider anyone under the age of 21 still a child. Now we’re watching the lead police officer on the stand, trying to backpedal their way out of this situation. Sounds like somebody didn’t want to their job that day 😕and so they simply told the family they had to wait 48 hours. 😡 The Suzanne law and the amber alert are used in every state Georgia State had no excuse.
@@DocBree13No. There were no crashes logged that day. Throwing a phone shows a crash.
@@DocBree13There was no crash logged in that day. Throwing a cell phone signals a crash.
I can't wait for him to be found GUILTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's not looking good for him.
@@craigguerrero1383grammar police 👮
Could be he’s kill more than this young lady.
I don't think you are wrong to speculate on that. I sure would not be surprised.
This is definitely not his 1st rodeo !
I said the same thing.. Susana was not his first victim
*he/he's killed
I agree he’s a serial killer
I will never believe this is his first kill...he is too confident. Imo he is a serial killer (or in the making). How many missing women have NOT been found...😢
Prayers for the Morales family and friends. ❤🙏✝️
He's a cop. Of course not.
And in such a great position to hide evidence Smdh
It probably is because the dummy dropped his weapon at the crime scene
I pray for her father and mother.
A real creep. No feelings that he brutalized young girl?
too bad the audio is so poor
I ALWAYS start with earbuds and CC then decide if I need them. 🤓🤷🏼♀️. I watch a lot of interrogations and those audios are ATROCIOUS! (even cleaned up)
@@numberone5680yup same!! Some channels do a really good job cleaning up interrogation audio n some of the REALLY good creators take the time to subtitle them!
what a monster he is.. justice for Susana morales and her family.. he deserves what is coming for him.
So you've decided he's guilty, even though the trial just started? Typical
@davidpetrosky watch his Interrogation. He is guilty!!!
@@rhondaturner That's the job of the jury. I respect the process. They need to watch it, and aggregate it, with all other evidence, before making a decision. Innocent people, have been a part of interrogations that look damming, including ones where they've falsely confessed. Again, i respect the process.
Wow, he left all the evidence he did it at the scene.
Terrible cop, even worse criminal, terrible person in general.
Even though most missing kids come back home safe and sound, the police should always take these reports seriously. Especially, when parents are really worried and don't think their kid would just take off.
It becomes real for them...if it were someone they know...when Every case should be taken seriously!
Excellent opening by the prosecutor!
He was doing this in the military I'm sure of it and also he ruined his life her life her friends and family's life his friends and family's life all over sexual carnal desires.
How do you know he did this in the military? Do you have experience in this area?
You're SURE of it?! Wow, you're really something. Did you tell the cops all that he did that you KNOW he did? Good grief.
@@user-qr2kh6uh6qhe should have gotten a girlfriend
What kind of a dumb person leaves a REGISTERED redrum weapon at the crime scene.
Oh, I get it, that's one of them rhetorical questions!
Obviously, he fucked up
His gun at the death scene was not the weapon used, as far as the evidence shows. He dropped it by accident.
@@martinwhite418 Be that as it may, he still left a breadcrumb😂
@VelvetPanther I was responding to the person who referred to the firearm as the "murder weapon".
Powerful statements. May he rot in prison.
And then in hell!
Justice be served.
🙏🏽
Praying for his experience amoungst is fellow peers is painful and miserable, bringing him nightmares and bed wetting and a sick stomach
Makes me wonder why some crimes are death penalty eligible but others aren’t. At one point, Georgia said they’d seek the death penalty against the man who killed Laken Riley, and then they decided to seek life imprisonment. This case is the same as the Riley case because both girls were killed by strangers while walking/jogging. This case might be even worse because Myles should have other stalking charges against another victim and he was working as a POLICE OFFICER at the time. 😮😢
The only reason they can’t make this a stronger crime is probably because they can’t determine her cause of death. Just guessing?
Did he say her phone was tossed out of the window?
Yes
I remember watching a Gwinnett County cop on Court TV around 30 yrs ago charged with killing and older lady who lived in a trailer and knew she kept a lot of cash, @ $80,000, i think. The cop had a failing gym that he was trying to keep going. He wanted to frame her son who’d right after she died, bought a new corvette, claiming the son killed her for the money, but the cop was convicted, so if he’s still alive, he must still be in prison. I was home recovering from arthroscopic surgery at that time.
I remember that case. It was on Forensic Files or some similar show.
When he took the quiktrip girl photos and sent it to himself would’ve made me find him guilty. REAL CREEP
Both phones and gun found by victim?? Not very smart criminal or police officer. Why did he have to kill her?
👉🏾 Little girl lost ❤
On First 48 Season 24 Episode 5
He’s a serial killer!!
Probably is. But you're detracting from this young woman and her murder. She deserves the focus right now.
Keeping up with this trial
How the f does he think that he is gonna get away with this
He probably got away with stalking for a while before they caught his a$$.
He is a Certified monster!! He is going straight to hell no detour!!
Why did it end? We dont get to see the full day????
So marijuana is not legal (I don't believe) in Georgia but that doesn't make murdering a 16 yr old legal either.
Correct! He is a damn disgrace!
I knew someone a younger person saying a old married man offer her weed for booty😡
its not legal, but its heavily looked past, 9/10 times the police dont care unless you make it an issue. however, idk what that had to do with the case at all lol felt weird for him to add
He offered it to teens which makes him creepy.
NOTE: The possession of marijuana is a FEDERAL crime in The United States 🇺🇸 of America.
Marijuana is NOT APPROVED by The United States 🇺🇸 of America “FEDERAL”Government.
The 🇺🇸 Federal Government overrules any State approved marijuana laws.
Why can't they get both mics to work the same? It's very annoying.
When he walks away from the podium mic, the ambient mics in the room pick up his voice quite well. If they weren't there, you wouldn't hear him at all.
The sound is trash!
When he was away from the microphone, it sounds like a waterfall running in the background....AND the sound is coming through the left ear only....augghhh!!
Rest in peace baby girl!
Turned from a cop to a killer... Like there's a difference.
Who do you call when someone breaks into your home or robs you 🙄not all police are bad sheesh
Affirmative action Jackson DEI hire
@@mikepearson9983what do you call white cops who kill?
What kind of a person could legitimately defend this monster in a trial?
I don't care how much money or any other compensation that could be offered; I simply couldn't defend this evil.
I think the case was an episode on the First 48, last season.
Yes it was. I live 5 mins away from where she disappeared. 💔
Season 24, Episode 5. Heartbreaking!
They aren't even obliged to serve and protect. That's a myth.
The usual suspect..may he rot in hell
He was offered a deal of 30 years, but he wouldn’t take it so we went to trial
Shame on him for putting this family through a trial.
30 years?! That means he’d be out by the time he’s 50-ish. He’s a predator! Why isn’t this a death penalty case or at least life imprisonment like the Laken Riley case? Is Laken Riley’s life worth more than Susana Morales’s?
@@nightwithout-stars1951more likey it was 30 years with the positivity of parole, which means he knows they wouldn't give him parole, that's why he fighting it.
Well, had he done this in California, he never would have been charged and given a new gun.
We all have the right to trial. He's presumed innocent until proven guilty. Personally, I Believe he's guilty, but I defend his right to a trial. The fact that he did not accept a plea deal either means he is innocent, (if that's the case, he should NOT take a plea and admit guilt), or he's too arrogant and stupid to realize the evidence will prove his guilt; and most likely plans to play the victim card. The truth will be revealed
how dumb to leave the gun there
Mistake
I believe his phone was found near her. He should have took the plea deal.
2 phones and his gun. I may have missed if his wallet was there
What is that lady sitting between the judge and the prosecutor who's holding that device to her mouth doing and what's the device? I don't even know how to Google this...
The only thing he didn't leave in the woods was his body. Gheez! This is tragic.
My condolences to the family
Wasn’t his truck backed in that parking space when the video captured her walking by? I thought I saw it but I could be wrong
O m g this world is crazy too sad. My condolences gor Susannas Family😇😇
That young black georgia cop looks fresh off the boat
What boat?
The boat from africa
Animal.
Animals don't do this he is a MONSTER of epic proportions 🤬
Excellent Opening!!!
This officer, Miles Bryant, has stalked at least 2 other females while employed by this same department- in the months prior to this incident; allegedly no disciplinary actions were taken. At least one of the other victims had video evidence to prove the "allegations" of stalking and Bryant was even accused of breaking into this victims apt. and stealing underwear.
The fault of this atrocity falls squarely on the "thin blue line", due to repeated refusal to hold officers accountable!
They need to look into his time in the military. He could have very well attacked women then and later as a supposed police officer. He’s such an idiot for reporting his weapon stolen out of his car, knowing he had left it at the crime scene.
He’s despicable!
He thought he was being smart 😂 Probably he was thinking that he'd get out on front of it so when they found her and the gun he could be like "well hekk, had to have been the dood who stoled it 🤷🏿♂️"
@@michellesmith702wasn’t me 😂😂😂😂
So, is it ok for a 16 yr old to smoke weed and walk alone at 10 pm🤔🤔🤔
Why are you victim blaming?
No Audio here,You Tube!!
We have had to dummy down Standards to accommodate for the feelings of Society so much, that our Schools, Workforce, Policing/Military and Now even Our Government is Fractured. We have to tighten up as a Society for OUR future. We need to bring back Merit through Honor.
This guy is a total psychopath probably being preying on innocent young girls for a long time. They must check for more victims😮😢
I don't know anything about this case,just reading the answers,what ever happened to innocent before found guilty ,do you all know he's guilty for sure?? Just saying I don't know a thing ,but dang guys really give the guy a chance to defend themselves
WE REALLY CAN'T EAR ANYTHING 😮😮😮😮😮
My gut is telling me Susana wasn’t his first victim. One might assume she was because of how foolish he appeared to be by leaving the gun at the scene of the crime but I credit God for that. I think he may have gotten away with murder in the past and the good Lord caused him to stumble in his sin/evil. The fact that he couldn’t locate the gun after going back to the scene the next morning shows this was orchestrated by our higher power. Susana Morales may be the young victim who brought justice on a serial killer.
Thank my Divine for their intervention. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼He dropped that gun for a reason, Suzanna remains was found for a reason.
You can't harm Angels and never be held accountable.
I am so very thankful the police found that pile of flesh and he will never hurt anyone else again.
The police dropped the ball.
Technically, they are.
But, When you're regular Army, you dont really consider NG as military.
You really don't consider Army Reserve military either.
Who's sitting near the microphone and sniffing every 10 seconds!?
😂
I will have 3 pigs in a blanket and a creme soda to go ! 😂😂😂
Prosecutor looks like the dude that will play Satan in the new Constantine
gloria allred doing court reporting now, I see.
Can barely understand what he's saying they should tell him to stop rambling and use the microphone
The frìends and boyfriend and boyfriend dad needs to be thoroughly investigated....defense is not putting the pressure on them
Did you read the facts of the case?? There’s plenty of evidence on the cop & records of him harassing multiple previous women, please don’t be ignorant to facts.
wat is that lady with the object at her mouth, what is the function?
I just commented this too. I hadn't seen your comment but hopefully someone answers one or the other.
@@michellesmith702 I asked google. But here it is.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stenomask
Translation
@@michellesmith702 I had replied to you with a link, I guess YT removed it. But the object is a steno mask. You can google it.
I copy-paste something for you here.
A stenomask is a hand-held microphone built into a padded, soundproof enclosure that fits over the speaker's mouth or nose and mouth. Some lightweight versions may be fitted with an elastic neck strap to hold them in place while freeing the user's hands for other tasks. The purpose of a stenomask is to allow a person to speak without being heard by other people, and to keep background noise away from the microphone.
A stenomask is useful for speech recognition applications, because it allows voice transcription in noisy environments. Perhaps more importantly, a stenomask silences the user's voice so that it does not interfere with the surrounding environment such as a court or a classroom. The user can verbally identify the speaker, indicate gestures and unspoken answers, and describe activities as they take place.
I don’t really think emotional pleading in the opening statement is a good idea. This opening statement is kinda bullshit. He’s telling them everything they will hear…reminds me of piggybacking…
Did he kidnap her?
What’s that noise every few seconds??? Geez!!
Hey Mr prosecutor stop walking away from the mic 🎤
He said was sick
Shameful how they tried to down play her character because she smoked pot..hat HSchooler didnt? Ive been smoking weed since ibwas 16 yrs old and will be 60 next yr....ive held only 1 job, my whole life, which i just retired after 35 yrs at 55 yrs of age.....btw i know some older folks in their kate 70's and early 80's that have been smoking since they were teens....whom btw one was retired from Hewlett-Packard as a executive and one who retired from the same industry as i......the elevator industry, and both are very successful and financially secure for the rest of their lives and their children lives and grandchildren.....such s bad stigma has been placed on the yse of Marijuana.....Arnold Schwarzenegger and Franco columbo used to smoke before their workouts because it gave them such focus....Bruce Lee amongst many other famous successful people.....seems its the ones that dont have the issues in a lot of aspects of life....maybe they should give it a shot before being so judgemental.
🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰
This prosecutor needs a haircut!
