12-Year-Old Convicted of Murder In Deadly Shooting

On Thursday, October 5, 2023, a 12-year-old kid was judged delinquent, which is the same as guilty, on a m*rder charge in Johnson County Court at Law No. 1 after nearly seven hours of deliberation. The boy’s identity and the specifics of his three-day trial were kept private because of his young age.

The child was detained earlier this year in connection with a fatal shooting that occurred on May 13 at a Sonic restaurant in Keene. Judge John Neill of County Court at Law No. 1 will preside over the sentencing part of the boy’s trial on Thursday.

Around 9:40 p.m. on May 13, 2023, Keene police responded to a report of gunfire at a Sonic on Old Betsy. According to the report, an argument between two ad*lts turned physical when the 12-year-old child got out of a car and shot the victim many times.
