On June18, 2026 at approximately 02:49 hours I, Deputy M. Jones, made contact with [VICTIM #1] at [REDACTED] in Macon-Bibb County, Ga. [VICTIM #1] accused Jerdney Brinson of committing several crimes against her, [VICTIM #2] ([VICTIM #1]’s mother), and [REDACTED BY AGENCY] ([VICTIM #1]’s and Mr. Brinson’s infant daughter).
[VICTIM #1] explained that she initially contacted 911 at approximately 00:04 hours. She made this call after a verbal altercation turned physical with Mr. Brinson.
Mr. Brinson arrived on scene at the apartment where Mr. Brinson, [VICTIM #1], [VICTIM #2], and [REDACTED BY AGENCY] reside. Mr. Brinson accused [VICTIM #1] of cheating with the neighbor’s male friend at apartment [REDACTED]. This led to Mr. Brinson taking [VICTIM #1]’s phone and destroying it. This property was never recovered. Mr. Brinson then punched [VICTIM #1] in the nose, which subsequentially led it bleeding. Mr. Brinson prohibited [VICTIM #1], [VICTIM #2], and [REDACTED BY AGENCY] from leaving the apartment by standing in front of the door. [VICTIM #1] accused Mr. Brinson of being intoxicated.
Out of desperation [VICTIM #1] climbed through a bedroom window with her infant in arm, to escape the apartment. She went to her neighbor’s ([WITNESS #1]) apartment [REDACTED]. [WITNESS #1] allowed [VICTIM #1] to shower and clean her face. Mr. Brinson left the scene at this point. [VICTIM #1] explained that she did not speak with dispatchers when she made her first call because she’s in love with Mr. Brinson.
Deputy Morera and I arrived on scene but could not make contact. We were only given the possible building per dispatch, pinging the caller’s location. Eventually we returned to service after no evidence of a crime was present.
At approximately 01:42 hours [VICTIM #1] contacted 911 again. She gave her apartment number this time. [VICTIM #1] explained that she made this call because Mr. Brinson “crossed the line”.
Mr. Brinson returned to the scene after [VICTIM #1] escaped to her neighbor’s apartment. Mr. Brinson made contact with [VICTIM #1] and their infant child in the breezeway of their apartment, between units [REDACTED] and [REDACETD]. Mr. Brinson attempted to snatch the infant out of the arms of [VICTIM #1]. When he was not successful, he slapped [VICTIM #1] on the left side of her face. All subjects then entered their apartment [REDACETD]. [WITNESS #1] witnessed these acts and testified to them during my interview with her.
While inside of their apartment Mr. Brinson threatened to mast*rbate in front of all three victims. [VICTIM #2] attempted to stop him by hitting him with her cane but was not successful. [VICTIM #1] accused Mr. Brinson of pulling out his p*nis, spitting on it, and proceeding to mast*rbate in the presence of [VICTIM #1], [VICTIM #2], and [REDACTED BY AGENCY]. Once he was threatened with the police he fled the scene in his 2011 gray Buick Enclave.
[VICTIM #1] appeared to have a slightly red and puffy face on her left. She did not have any signs of an injury to her nose to my awareness. [REDACTED BY AGENCY] had faint and dark marks on her left shoulder and bicep. I took photos of both subjects. EMS arrived on scene shortly after and treated both subjects on scene. I advised [VICTIM #1] of TPO process and provided her with a case card.
Deputy Morera and I made contact with Mr. Brinson at [REDACETD]. When I arrived on scene, I made contact with the female homeowner (Mr. Brinson’s Aunt). She informed me that Mr. Brinson was inside her home and she gave deputies permission to enter. Contact was made with Mr. Brinson in the master bedroom where he was placed under arrest. Handcuffs were placed on both wrists behind him. The handcuffs were double locked and checked for fit. Mr. Brinson was searched incident to arrest. I then placed him in the back seat of my patrol unit and transported him to the Bibb County LEC for booking. Mr. Brinson did smell of alcohol and had a slightly slurred speech.
During the booking process he repeatedly stated that upon release he is going to kill [VICTIM #1]. He made this comment in the presence of Deputy Renfroe, the jail nurse, and me.
Warrants were taken.

DEFENSE ATTORNEY MICHAEL ALEXANDER FILES LIMITED ENTRY OF APPEARANCE — JERDNEY BRINSON
What this means: Attorney Michael J. Alexander filed a Limited Entry of Appearance in Bibb County Superior Court for Jerdney Jermel Brinson in case number 2026-MCR-007149. A limited entry of appearance means the attorney is stepping in for a specific, narrow purpose only — in this case, to argue the motion to set bond — and is not taking over as Brinson’s full-time defense counsel.
7/15/26
DEFENSE FILES MOTION TO SET BOND — JERDNEY BRINSON
What this means: Attorney Michael J. Alexander filed a formal request asking the Bibb County Superior Court to set a bond for Jerdney Jermel Brinson in case number 2026-MCR-007149. The motion states that Brinson has been held in custody since June 2026, and that a magistrate judge was unable to set bond — meaning the case required a Superior Court judge to make that determination. The motion argues that Brinson poses no significant flight risk, no danger to the community, and no risk of intimidating or harassing the alleged victims, citing the bond eligibility standards under Georgia law. The motion asks the court to schedule a hearing and issue a bond order. A judge has not yet ruled on this request based on the documents provided.
7/23/26
JUDGE DENIES BOND — JERDNEY BRINSON
What this means: A judge of the Bibb County Superior Court, Macon Judicial Circuit, held a bond hearing on July 23, 2026 and denied bond for Jerdney Jermel Brinson in case number 2026-MCR-007149. The court found that the State proved by a preponderance of the evidence — meaning it was more likely than not — that Brinson poses a significant threat or danger to a person or to the community, poses a significant risk of committing a felony while the case is pending, and poses a significant risk of intimidating witnesses or otherwise obstructing the administration of justice. Brinson has been held in custody since June 18, 2026. He will remain in custody without bond as the case moves forward.
