In Ohio courts, defendants convicted of aggravated murder of law enforcement officers face severe consequences, including life imprisonment without parole, with additional sentences for firearm specifications and other related offenses, as demonstrated in the case of Brian Michael Wilson who was sentenced to life without parole plus 27 to 32.5 years for the murder of Deputy Shear.

Sentenced to Prison for the MURDER of a DeputyAdded:
Welcome back everybody to another shocking courtroom episode of Lockdown 23 in1.
That's right. Today we're traveling to an Ohio courtroom once again. To witness a defendant get sentenced for the death of a deputy. And the way that it all played out, not to mention what the defendant said to the deputy before the crimes took place to me at least, is very eerie. I'll break all that down here in one second. But first, as always, if you're new to the channel and enjoy all things lockup and crime related, then this is absolutely where you need to be. Hit that like, subscribe, notification bell before you leave, and check out my beautifully assorted playlist with many more videos for you to start watching today. All right, like I said, before we get into the courtroom, let me break down the situation a little bit. It says, "On Memorial Day 2025, Deputy Shure, 31, responded to a residence on County Road 26 near Moringo, Ohio. He was answering a domestic dispute report after the defendant Wilson had fired multiple gunshots at his own brother-in-law, nearly hitting his head. Body camera footage captured Deputy Shear arriving to find Wilson sitting on the porch with a firearm. Shear attempted to deescalate the situation, telling Wilson, "Hey man, let's just talk. Don't do this." Wilson then threatened the deputy, ordering him to leave and then stating, "And like I said in the intro, this is pretty eerie to me." Wilson said to the deputy, "You better just [ __ ] go if you want your family to see you tomorrow." That's wild to think that that's exactly what happened. Wilson then advanced down the porch steps and opened fire. Deputy Shear managed to return fire, striking Wilson in the arm and leg before collapsing. Shear was transported to a local hospital where he succumbed to his wounds that night. And of course, Mr. Wilson survived his injuries and was charged with and convicted of aggravated murder along with 13 other counts. Very unfortunate situation and my condolences go out to that officer's family and friends. Those domestic calls could turn dicey very quickly. A lot of emotion and usually drugs or alcohol are at play.
Got to keep your head on a swivel and ready for anything. And that's not just for officers. But now let's find out what exactly the Ohio courts have in store for Mr. Wilson.
>> No words can change or fix what happened that day.
And for that, I'm sorry.
The only thing I can do is try to help heal all the hurt that I caused.
>> Housekeeping matters. Before I impose sentence is the understanding of the court, I want this on the record. Uh obviously it was set forth in the plea agreement. Both the state of Ohio and the defendant have agreed that the sentence the court will impose pursuant of the judge entry that was provided to the court. Hate to stop the judge in his tracks, but first and foremost, I can't help but to mention, you know, when this defendant was apologizing, it sounded so fake and pathetic, man. Like he's done it over and over throughout the years with his own family after going berserk on them, you know, then coming back and apologizing all feeble and shaking. And second of all, did y'all hear what the judge said? There's a plea agreement.
Why on earth would they do a plea agreement when they got everything that they need on body cam footage? That's all the evidence they need to lock in, if you were to ask me, a solid death penalty. Well, I'm going to break all those stipulations down at the end, so stick around. Sometimes the death penalty ain't always the best route.
>> The review by the parties isn't is um an agreement of the parties. Is that correct from the state's perspective?
>> It's correct.
>> And also from the defense perspective.
>> Yes, your honor. Therefore, since it's been an agreed sentence, the state the court does not have to make the findings that believe at one point it had to make for consecutive sentences and is relying on state versus sergeant 2016 Ohio Supreme Court case 26 two 20 two 2016 Ohio 2696.
Uh the court would also note u for the record that uh Mr. Wilson has entered P to all 14 counts um of the uh indictment. He pled guilty on May 6th.
Um in addition to pleading guilty to all 14 counts, he also in count number one plead guilty to a firearm specification of three years and a specification from forfeur weapons. He also plead guilty in count number two to aggravated murder fire and specification of three years again in a specification for forfeite of weapons. It's my understanding that the state wishes to make a motion that counts one 2 3 four and five be considered allied offenses of similar import. Is that correct prosecutor? W >> correct judge on count one >> and the state is electing to uh have Mr. Wilson sentenced on count number one aggravated murder. Is that correct?
Correct.
>> In addition, the court understands that >> something about this guy and his shivering little braided goatee is making my skin crawl.
>> Number six, 7,8 and nine are also allied offenses of similar import. Is that correct?
>> Correct.
>> And that the state is making a motion to have uh Mr. Wilson sentenced on case number six. Is that count number six? Is that correct?
>> That is correct.
The court has considered the pre-sentence investigation has considered the sentences the um statements made by both the defense and the state of Ohio has considered the appropriate sentence to be um sentencing factors to be uh applied under the law of the state of Ohio.
uh has found that the recommended sentence that the court has imposed is just in the circumstances.
Court would also note um as an aside that the court did have the occasion to attend a death penalty conference in um Columbus in April and that the average the court learned at that time that the average stay on death row is 23 years before a person can even be proceed to be executed. The court believes that this resolution is just both for uh the state of Ohio and also for the victims in this case. Well, there you have it.
The plea deal is in place pretty much because maybe personal preference with the victim's family. Heard what the judge said. You know, typical wait time on death row. 20 what? 27 years. That's a long time. Maybe the other people won't even be alive to see justice served or maybe a loophole later on down the road that can secure his freedom.
And so, a lot of people like that justice to be served quick. life in prison without parole. Let it be done and over with. And a lot of people feel as though that's a worse punishment than death.
>> On count number one, Mr. Wilson is sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
>> There you have it.
>> Because there are allied offenses of similar import. No sentence is imposed.
And count number two, three, four, and five.
>> Let it flow. Court also imposes a mandatory period of 3 years incarceration for a specification board count one firearm in violation RC 2941.145A to be served prior and consecutively to other sentences imposed. The court further orders the forfeure of the Walt Walt Walther PK 380 serial PKO 11103 firearm and the Smith and Wesson revolver 38 caliber uh serial number DEF3058 pursuant to specification five of count one on count number uh for the purposes of sentencing the court sentenced Mr. Wilson to count number six for an indefinite period of 11 to 16 1/2 years and because their allied offenses of similar import no sentence is imposed as the count 7 8 or 9. As for count 10 for the violation of RC 2923.161A1 2923.161C improperly discharging firearms into in at or into a habitation or school safety zone. The court imposes the sentence of eight years incarceration for count number 11 for the violation of RC 2923.162A3 2923.162C2 discharge of a firearm honor near prohibitive premises the court imposes a sentence 3 years incarceration for court number 12 for the violation of count number 12 for the violation of RC 2923.24A 2923.24 24 C. The court imposes possession criminal tools. The court imposes a a period of incarceration of 12 months. On count number 13 for the violation of RC 2923.24A 2923.24C possessing criminal tools, the court imposes a penalty of incarceration of 12 months. for account number 14 for the violation of RC 2923.15A 2923.15B using weapons while intoxicated which is a misdemeanor >> intoxicated first degree the court imposes a sentence of 6 months um that sentence the misdemeanor sentence will run concurrent with other sentences however counts 6 10 11 12 and 13 shall be served consecutively to the sentence of life without the possibility of parole for count number one and the three-year firearm specific ification to count number one for an aggregated sentence of incarceration of life without the possibility of parole >> Smokeville >> of 27 and plus 27 to 32 and 1/2 32 and 12 years 27.32 232.5 >> all right your honor I got a little tongue twistered up with that time too but lookucky here just like I assumed yes Brian Michael Wilson had a violent criminal history that included prior convictions for domestic violence violence in firearm offenses. He had multiple past allegations and charges stemming from domestic disputes, prior convictions that led a court to once order him to surrender all his firearms for a 2-year period. Damn, they should have taken his firearms for life, and additional charges linked to past behavior of assaults and disorderly conduct. Remember I said he probably snaps on his own family members all the time after drinking and then so up a little bit, goes up to him shaking and shivering. I'm so sorry. I promise it won't happen again. I don't know. I'm just assuming. But if he is that type of person, man, he's bottom of the barrel for sure. But that's a wrap, ladies and gentlemen. Just to reiterate on what I already said, be very extremely weary with every single domestic situation.
You could be a hero if you want to. But as for me, I'll probably be watching from the blinds. Whispering to Britney, don't call the cops. Everything will be all right. When we lived in an apartment complex, man, I've done that a few times. One time she thought she saw a robber breaking into the apartment across the street. I was like, Britney, don't call the police yet. I'm watching, watching. Thankfully, you know, next thing you know, he comes around the corner in a golf car. Damn maintenance crew working on the AC unit probably.
And then there was another time, same apartment complex, a uh couple got into a fight right there in our garden bed.
I'm looking right down on it through the blinds. Bernie's about to call the cops.
I'm like, just hold on, wait. Dude was getting physical with her, too. I was fresh out of prison, though. I still had the old look the other way mentality, but thank goodness I did because the next day they were happy golucky holding hands to the car doing shopping. One of the lucky ones. Like I said, many of these situations end up way worse than anyone could ever imagine. But I'm out of here, ladies and gentlemen. Hopefully you enjoyed today's episode and stay tuned. I got plenty more content coming your way. In the meantime, though, as always, y'all be easy, be safe, and stay free.
