A baby-faced 12-year-old boy has been indicted for first degree murder over the 'gang-related' slayings of three teenagers in a small Florida community and will be tried as an adult, authorities have announced.
Christopher Atkins faces one charge while Robert Robinson, 17, and Tahj Brewton, 16, have been indicted on three counts of first degree murder of the teens whose bodies were found dumped in rural Ocklawaha, near Ocala.
Victims Layla Silvernail and Camille Quarles, both 16, and previously unidentified Michael Hodo Jr., 17, were all shot and discovered in different locations over a period of three days from March 30.
William Gladson, State Attorney for the Fifth Judicial Circuit, announced the grand jury indictments Tuesday, saying 'all three defendants will be charged as adults in Marion County Circuit Court.'
'Layla Silvernail was discovered lying unconscious near a dumpster on March 30 after being shot in the head,' said a release from Gladson's office, which added new details of the horror. 'She was transported to the hospital and died from her injuries.
'Michael Hodo Jr. was found dead the following morning on the side of the road with a gunshot wound to the back of the head.
'Camille Quarles was found dead in the trunk of Layla Silvernail's vehicle on April 1. Quarles had been shot two times and murdered while in the trunk of the vehicle.'
Hodo's name had previously been withheld because his parents had invoked Marcy's Law, a privacy entitlement to exclude victims' identities from official reports. Additionally, it had not been known exactly where or how Quarles had died.

Shower time will be a pain for these boys.
Three ropes. Publicly.
Just more of Obama’s sons.
Shoot the bastards in the head, like they did to the victims.
Damned animals. They shouldn’t get to continue living; Their victims didn’t.
I think the woodchipper feet first would be more effective, but hanging works too!
They’re not animals, they’re demons!
Jesus, can’t something be done about these thug bastards? It’s getting worse all the time. We need a serious gang taskforce with special powers to eliminate this. It’s already gotten way out of hand. It’s law enforcement’s job to keep the people safe, right? They’re sure doing a piss poor job of it in the hoods. And who gives a damn what the squawking liberal turds on the left will say.
Hold their single mothers accountable?
The victims were all white, the murderers all black.
“ Hold their single mothers accountable?”
******************************************
If these darlings are in jail/prison can the wonderful mothers continue to use them to get welfare payments, SNAP cash and free/cheap housing?
I hope not!
Yes, we need an ‘all of the above’ approach to this ongoing crime problem. These hood rats have turned into the enemy of good and good people everywhere. Enough is enough!
“ Hold their single mothers accountable? “
How about their non-parent bio-fathers?
Tracking them down would be a hoot.
“They’re not animals, they’re demons!”
I think we have a lot of those moving around in our nation these days.
“If these darlings are in jail/prison can the wonderful mothers continue to use them to get welfare payments, SNAP cash and free/cheap housing?”
She has already found another baby daddy and is pregnant again.
The gangs are doing exactly what they did in Africa with the child soldiers. Get them to do the deed while young and they can never leave the gang. The gang is the only thing protecting them. I wish there were more prison ministries because at this age, fear might get them to seeking the Lord.
“How about their non-parent bio-fathers?”
Most of the time their real fathers don’t even know they exist. Remember The Maury Show? How many DNA tests would we have to do in order to find the real father? Remember that one woman? She did like 18 tests and never found her baby daddy.
“I wish there were more prison ministries because at this age, fear might get them to seeking the Lord.”
This could have all been prevented had he had a mother and father that took him to church every Sunday from the day he was born.
