The four, who were ages 15 and 16 at the time, were initially charged as adults with second-degree murder.

The three judge Court of Appeals panel overruled  that Genesee County judge Joseph Farah by a 2 to 1 vote in his decision against dropping the adult charges. .

Miller was released from custody on bond last summer, while Gray, Payne and Sekelsky have remained in jail since the 2017 incident.
