The Brief One of three teens was sentenced in the death of Oakland County Sheriff's Deputy Brad Reckling Karim Moore was sentenced to 5 to 20 years in prison Friday. Reckling and his wife Jacklyn had three children, and his wife was pregnant when he died. DETROIT (FOX 2) - One of three teens charged in the killing of an Oakland County Sheriff's Deputy learned how much time he'll have in prison. What they're saying It was a step towards justice in the murder case of Oakland County Sheriff's Deputy Brad Reckling. The first of three teens was charged and sentenced on Friday. "Although steps toward justice were served today, there's no sentence that's going to make us feel good about this," said Undersheriff Timothy Willis. Karim Moore was sentenced to 5 to 20 years in prison Friday. Moore is the first in a trio of teens who allegedly ambushed and killed Oakland County Sheriff's Deputy Bradley Reckling last June. Reckling was part of a task force investigating stolen cars, tracking the one 18-year-old Ramon Debose was driving, with Moore and 18-year-old Marquis Goins inside. Debose was charged with murder, and Goins as an accessory. "We focus on the perpetrators of these crimes and whatever but they're irrelevant, Brad and his family is what matters," said Willis. Why you should care Reckling and his wife Jacklyn had three children, and his wife was pregnant when he died. She was in court as Karim Moore pleaded guilty to three felonies, including conducting a criminal enterprise, receiving stolen property, and felony firearm. Next week, dozens of Oakland County Sheriff's Deputies will travel to Washington D.C. for National Police Week, where Reckling's name will be added to the National Law Enforcement Memorial. "This year is going to be really special, it's going to be heartbreaking, but it's going to be special and I think it's going to help us grow," said Willis.

Reckling to be remembered during National Police Week events in DC
The Oakland County Sheriff's Office in Michigan said it is planning to send "a significant delegation of our deputies" to the National Police Week ceremony in May. The delegation will represent Oakland County Sheriff's Deputy Bradley Reckling, age 30. He was shot and killed June 22, 2024, in the line of duty while investigating a stolen vehicle in Detroit. Reckling had located the vehicle in question and was behind it when the vehicle suddenly stopped; those inside exited the vehicle and opened fire. Three people were charged in the crime, one has recently pleaded guilty to related charges. Reckling was a nine-year veteran of the sheriff's office. He left behind a wife and four children. The National Police Week events, hosted by the National Law Enforcement Memorial in Washington D.C., take place every May. The museum opened in 2018 and is the nation's only museum dedicated to the history of American law enforcement. This year's schedule includes a candlelight vigil May 13 at the National Mall and a "stand watch for the fallen" May 15 at the memorial site on East Street NW. The ceremonies meant to honor those who died in the line of duty from across the U.S., and Reckling is on the list for this year's program. Between 25,000 and 40,000 people attend National Police Week events each year. The Oakland County Sheriff's Office said estimated cost for its delegation's travel plans - to include travel, food and accommodations – is about $60,000. They are accepting donations toward the travel project, which is called Mission Oakland. The video above previously aired on June 28, 2024.
