The 10-year-old charged with shooting and killing his mother made his first in-person appearance in court on Wednesday afternoon. Prosecutors have charged him as an adult with two counts: first-degree reckless homicide, or, in the alternative, first-degree intentional homicide. The first count carries a prison sentence of 60 years. The second carries a sentence of life. In the state of Wisconsin, once a child turns 10 and is charged with homicide, the case is sent automatically to adult court.
