During an arraignment June 15, a judge charged a minor as an adult for the murder of a 43-year-old man.
Titus Iracks, 16, is charged with first-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting Larry Harrell on the 1200 block of Mount Olivet Road, NE. Harrell was pronounced dead on the scene on June 13.
Iracks’ defense attorney ,Ronald Resetarits, argued that Iracks should be released under the High Intensity Supervision Program (HISP) based on his age and current status in school.
Deputy Presiding Magistrate Judge Errol Arthur said there was “more than probable cause” to hold Iracks. Furthermore, Judge Arthur said there was no possible combination of services that would protect the community.
Iracks is being held without bond.
The defendant is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on June 22.
