“They’re charged with murder and we’re going to apply the law,” Cotton said.

The 14-year-old, Amariyona Hall, is reportedly being charged as an adult on murder and is being held in the Pike County jail on a $150,000 bond. Her younger sister is being remanded at the Adams County Juvenile Detention Center.

Both will reportedly undergo mental health evaluations.
