A disturbing murder case in Lawrence County will go back to court this week.
Attorneys for 11-year-old Jordan Brown will go back to court Wednesday, with the goal of suppressing evidence in his case. He's being charged as an adult in the murder of 26-year-old Kenzie Houk and her unborn son in February.
Houk was the fiance of Brown's father, who fathered the child she was carrying.
The defense team wants a judge to suppress evidence in the killing, including an interview of Brown conducted by police at the child's elementary school on the day of the killings. Their argument is that Brown was not sufficiently notified of his rights at the time of the interview.
The defense is also still trying to get Brown's case moved from adult to juvenile court. An exact date for the hearing has not yet been set.
