(CNN) — The suspect in the death of 10-year-old Wisconsin girl Lily Peters is a 14-year-old eighth-grader, prosecutors said Wednesday. Karl Schmidt, an attorney for defendant, had argued that his client doesn’t pose a flight risk. Newell said it is premature to make any determinations regarding whether the case will remain in adult court. In Wisconsin, first-degree intentional homicide, which is the first count in the criminal complaint, by law originally starts in adult court. Her bicycle was discovered in a wooded area by a walking trail, and the body was found the next morning.
