- We received the news that an arrest had been made in the murder case of our family patriarch Dwight M. Brockman and dear fried George Manley or “Doc” as most knew him. We have hoped and prayed for this day for 8 years 11 months and 5 days. This is wonderful news for our families, as well as the friends of both men plus the whole community. We are Joyful and Happy for it, as all should be. Yet it is bittersweet at best, for this is not the end but only the beginning of the end, as there is still a long judicial process to come.

According to a statement from Brockman's family, the arrest was made June 25, 2024, nearly nine years after the two men were found dead inside Brockman's home at 2110 E. 10th St.
