Nathaniel Donald Brown Jr., 41, was shot and killed inside a Waverly Court home in Hinesville, Georgia, after an encounter with the homeowner on June 6, 2015. The homeowner, Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Jermaine Mealy, had returned from military training in Texas after a reported burglary at the residence and found Brown, identified as a friend of Mealy’s wife, inside the house. An altercation between Mealy and Brown ended when Mealy produced a firearm and shot Brown multiple times. Brown was taken to Liberty Regional Medical Center and later pronounced dead.

Jermaine Mealy was arrested and initially charged with felony murder following the shooting. The family of Nathaniel Brown expressed disappointment and wanted a trial to clarify the circumstances surrounding his death. Does anyone have information about Nathaniel’s life in Hinesville or about what happened that night?
