Two teenagers, one just 13 years old, plead guilty to voluntary manslaughter in beating death of Las Vegas teen Jonathan Lewis after four others were indicted for murder by grand jury

Two more teenagers have pled guilty to voluntary manslaughter for beating Las Vegas teen Jonathan Lewis to death in November.

Both of the teens entered guilty pleas in court on Wednesday morning as they appeared shackled and in juvenile custody uniforms before Judge Amy Mastin.

The juveniles' names aren't being publicly released because of their ages and because their cases are being handled in the family court system.

They are being charged for their role in the death of Jonathan Lewis, 17, who died after he was savagely beaten down by a group of around 15 other students.

Lewis's fatal assault took place outside Rancho High School in Las Vegas on November 1.

The first teenager in court on Wednesday was represented in court by attorney Richard Bryant, and his hearing was set for March 6.

The second teenager is only 13 years old. He was represented by attorney Anthony Wright.

As the teens pled guilty in the juvenile court system, their cases will be removed from the adult system by the state.

Lewis's mother and aunt made virtual appearances in court for the proceeding, KTNV reported.

Four teenagers have been charged as adults with the murder of their fellow student Lewis - and had their mugshots released to the public.

If I was a relatively of the victim, I would be petitioning for their release at the earliest possible date.

And I would be waiting outside the prison gate to greet them.

I would sign up for jury duty to be on your trial just to acquit you.

I’m guessing the ones with lesser charges ratted the others out.

They're being charged as kids, not adults. I would be (pleasantly) surprised if they get long sentences.

There was an incident in Baton Rouge LA in which a child molester was extradited to BR at the airport; the father of the victim was in the crowd; he walked up to the guy and shot him at point blank range in front of the police escort. He went to trial and was found not guilty.

They need to be tried as adults. They are not juveniles - they are monsters.
