The 10-year-old boy accused of shooting and killing his mother appeared in court Wednesday.The Milwaukee 10-year-old boy accused of shooting and killing his mother over a virtual reality headset appeared in court Wednesday, Dec. 14 for a second initial appearance, charged as an adult. His attorneys asked the court to lower his bail.
An amended criminal complaint filed Dec. 8 charges the boy with first-degree reckless homicide, or, in the alternative, first-degree intentional homicide. Prosecutors say they'll pursue one or the other. Prosecutors said the boy shot and killed his mother at their home near 87th and Hemlock Nov. 21. He was initially placed with family after the incident, but they called police the next day with concerns and said he has rage issues.
Judge Carroll found probable cause in the complaint and set the boy's bail at $50,000 despite a request from his attorneys to set it at $100 due to lack of income.
