The teenage murder suspect charged in the murder of an Arlington high school student will not be tried as an adult. The judge in the case made the ruling Friday.
testified Friday morning in a certification hearing for the teen murder suspect.
Judge Alex Kim considered four factors in Jonathan’s certification hearing: the nature of the crime, age and maturity at the time of the offense, any previous record and likelihood of rehabilitation. Just before the start of school, police say Jonathan pulled a shotgun from his backpack, firing two rounds and killing Jashawn. A buckshot from the blast struck a 16-year-old girl.The high school student murdered on campus in Arlington last month would have celebrated his 17th birthday this week. His family is trying to make sense of just why he was gunned down allegedly by a 15-year-old boy.
"At first, I didn’t know I had been shot. I had felt like, in the panic, somebody had accidentally elbowed me in the face," she recalled. "So I had went to, like, touch my face to, like, relieve the pain, and I brought my hand down and there was blood on my hand. So I was like, oh my goodness, I was shot in the face."RelatedJudge Alex Kim said the victims’ family had expressed retaliation fears if the boy was released from detention.
