Whether the teen suspect in Lily Peters’ murder can be helped in prison was a topic of discussion once more.
Yesterday, a judge in Chippewa County heard the suspect’s attorney attempt to make the case for shifting the trial to juvenile court.

The now-15-year-old is accused of raping then killing 10-year-old Lily Peters in April of last year after beating and strangling her.
