E.O. Green shooter to be tried as adult

Teen accused of shooting gay classmate to be tried as an adult:

14-year-old Brandon McInerney will be tried as an adult in the shooting death of 15-year-old Lawrence King at E.O. Green Junior High School.

King was an openly gay student who got back at the bullying from McInerney by mockingly flirting with him.

27 LGBT activist groups had requested that McInerney not be tied as an adult.

McInerney faces life in prison if convicted.
