A boy who was 11-years-old when he allegedly murdered his father’s pregnant fiancee with a shotgun has a “very limited” likelihood of being rehabilitated through the juvenile court system, a psychiatrist hired by state prosecutors said.

A judge will now weigh that in deciding whether Jordan Brown, now 12, will be tried as an adult or have his case moved to juvenile court.

Lawrence County Judge Dominick Motto gave both sides a week to submit written arguments. Motto must rule within 20 days, otherwise Brown will remain in adult court by default.
