Three teenagers involved in the brutal murder of a high school senior as he was being stabbed with a knife and sword will be charged as adults, authorities said Tuesday.
A team of Broward County prosecutors reviewed the evidence and circumstances of the case before a decision was made Tuesday, Broward State Attorney Harold Pryor said in a statement.
"If this case were to be handled as a juvenile matter, the maximum term of residential treatment would be 36 months prior to release," he said. "A juvenile charge would mean that the person would be released after three years in the system and could only be kept under supervision in the community until age 21."
