Teen Guilty Of Lesser Charge
KENTUCKY...
A jury in Louisville has convicted a teenager on lesser charges in the traffic crash deaths of four other teens.
Herbert Lee II had been indicted on murder charges, but the verdict delivered Thursday evening convicted Lee on four counts of manslaughter.
Police say Lee was giving boys he did not know a ride home from a church youth event on Dec. 18, 2008, when he tried to run from police. His car hit a tree and broke in half. Lee was 16 at the time.
Killed were 16-year-old twins Jemar and Demar Claybrooks; their brother, 14-year-old Marc Claybrooks; and a friend, 15-year-old Aaron Shields.
