Convicted killer went missing for 12 hours, sending jail into lockdown - only for officers to remember where they left him

A lockdown occurred in a Georgia jail when a convicted murderer, Julian Brooks Deloach, was discovered missing for 12 hours. Deloach, who had been moved to the Clayton County Jail for a court appearance, was inadvertently left alone in an unsupervised holding cell due to a miscommunication among jail staff. The incident led to a thorough search of the facility. Once found, Deloach was unharmed, and the sheriff recommended disciplinary actions against the officials responsible for the oversight.

"There was a mix-up of who was going to take the inmate down, and ultimately, he was left inside the holding cell."

"There is no one actually monitoring that particular cell if there was a distress call."
