I spent 10 days in trial with Mr. Clay and I listened to countless hours of him changing his story every time the detectives questioned him or brought up something new… It was very clear to me, Mr. Clay, you are a liar, a rapist and a killer.
~ Judge Daniel S. White before sentencing Clay to life without parole.

Daniel Clay is a Michigan man convicted of the murder of Chelsea Bruck in 2014.

Chelsea disappeared on October 26 2014, being seen leaving a Halloween party with a strange man just before she disappeared. Her dead body was found in 2015 close to where she was last seen. An autopsy found that she had been raped and killed.

The killer's DNA was found on her leggings, and was linked to Daniel Clay when it was run through the criminal database. Clay was arrested and admitted to killing her, claiming that they had had consensual sex and he had strangled her to death by accident. However the police didn't believe his story because she had in fact been beaten to death. A mutual acquaintance of Bruck and Clay also told police that Clay had used his last phone call to apologize to her for the murder.

Clay was convicted of first-degree murder and received the mandatory sentence of life without parole.
