Both men were convicted and sentenced to death. Brady admitted to being involved in the murder, but he claimed that Boblit had done the actual killing and that they had stolen Brooks' car ahead of a planned bank robbery but had not planned to kill him.<sup id="cite_ref-hiding_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hiding-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The prosecution had withheld a written statement by Boblit (the men were tried separately), confessing that he had committed the act of killing by himself.
