Sharon McCleary

Deadly force

A woman found Megan Motter shot in the head Wednesday morning. Deputies went to an apartment looking for James Garen, and when they arrived, Garen fired at them, and they fired three shots back. Garen allowed his girlfriend's sister to leave and later agreed to surrender and allowed his girlfriend to leave the apartment. But Jones said Garen claimed he wanted to smoke a cigarette first. At that point, he closed the door. Two shots fired immediately. His mother, Sharon McCleary, was found shot in the head in the apartment. She was sitting in a chair where her family said she spent most of her time because she was blind and had health problems.
