Lily Peters, a 10-year-old girl who prosecutors say was killed by an eighth grader in Wisconsin, suffered strangulation and blunt force trauma, according to the Chippewa County coroner.
Karl Schmidt, an attorney for defendant, had argued that his client doesn't pose a flight risk.
The juvenile defendant's next hearing is set for 4:30 p.m. ET on May 5, at which he will appear via video, not in person. Lily's father called the police later that night, and officers discovered her bicycle in a wooded area by a walking trail.
