A former Doraville police officer is facing new charges related to the kidnapping and death of a Gwinnett County teenager.
Susana Morales, 16, vanished in July 2022. Her naked body was found dumped in the woods nearly 20 miles away in February 2023.

The ex-officer, 22-year-old Miles Bryant, was initially charged with concealing a death. His charges were later upgraded to murder.
Channel 2 Gwinnett County Bureau Chief Matt Johnson obtained copies of court documents on Thursday that show Bryant was re-indicted last week.
The new indictment charges Bryant with criminal attempt to commit rape, in addition to his existing charges of murder, kidnapping and more.
