Attorneys: Try New Castle Boy, 12, As Juvenile In Killing

NEW CASTLE, Pa. -- Attorneys for a 12-year-old Lawrence County boy accused of killing his father's pregnant fiance want him tried as a juvenile, not an adult.

ordan Brown's attorneys said they'll filed a request to move the case to Lawrence County Juvenile Court sometime next week.

The attorneys announced those plans Thursday, after a judge allowed evidence from a search warrant to be presented at Brown's criminal trial, where he is charged as an adult.

Brown is accused in the February killings of Kenzie Marie Houk, 26, and her unborn son with a 20-gauge shotgun at her home in Wampum.

If convicted as an adult, Brown faces life in prison without parole. If the case is moved to juvenile court, any punishment would end when he turns 21.
