Investigators said the 16-year-old suspect used a shotgun to execute his mother. He was taken into custody.During the course of Thursday's hearing, his attorneys said that he has a history of having hallucinations, but was last seen by a psychologist back in 2016 for an evaluation. They said that he has had no access to medication.
A recommendation was agreed upon that the teenager will have an uptick of supervision while in custody as they believe that he is a "danger to himself and others."
