Woman body was found under a hotel bed frame for 2 months


Mother of five was found dead; after her body was discovered stuffed in a hotel room bed frame, where she and her children were staying.

Sony Millbrook was staying at a Budget Lodge in Mason, Tennessee with her boyfriend and children’s father LaKeith Moody at the time of her reported disappearance.

Millbrook’s family reported her missing when she did not show up to pick up her children from school on January 27th.

“On that day, the hotel locked the room out because of lack of payment,” Major Joe Scott with the Memphis Police Department said.

The next day, the hotel staff put her belongings in storage and housekeeping cleaned the room.

For two months, Millbrook’s body was under a bed in room 222 at the Budget Lodge on East Brooks Road and it was reported that a total of five guests stayed in the room before the body was found.

“Hotel staff reported to management there’s something wrong in this room,” said Scott, but it was obviously ignored.

At the time of Millbrook’s disappearance, Moody was under order of protection to stay away from her.

Police state that after Millbrook’s disappearance, Moody also was missing for a few week until he was arrested driving the missing mother’s car.

“He had recently gotten out of jail and was staying with her at the Budget Lodge,” Scott said.

After the arrest, police interrogated Moody and arrested him on an unrelated warrant of a convicted felon in possession of a gun.  At this point, Moody is only a person of interest in the case, but one of the last people to see Millbrook.

He is currently in jail in Mason, Tennessee.
