Judge sets trial for men in two teens drug slayings
DETROIT (AP) - A Detroit judge has ordered two men to trial on first-degree murder charges in the drug-related killing of two suburban Detroit teens in 2012.
The bodies of 17-year-old Jourdan Bobbish and 18-year-old Jacob Kudla were found in a field on Detroit's east side. The Westland residents had been missing for five days.
On Wednesday, District Judge Michael Wagner ruled that there's enough evidence to try 25-year-old Fredrick K. Young of Detroit and 23-year-old Ferlando D. Hunter of Jackson.
The Young and Hunter are scheduled to appear in Wayne County Circuit Court for arraignment July 23.
Authorities say the teens went to a house in Detroit looking to buy drugs but instead were robbed, tortured and shot.
