Court proceedings delayed again for 15-year-olds accused of killing Pastor Autura Eason-Williams

Miguel Andrade & Brayan Carrillo will have hearings on Jan. 20 deciding whether or not they are tried as adults.

MEMPHIS, Tennessee — Monday evening, new developments emerged in the juvenile case of two 15-year-olds accused of killing well known and beloved Pastor Autura Eason-Williams this summer in the driveway of her Whitehaven home.

Miguel Andrade & Brayan Carrillo will have hearings on Jan. 20 deciding whether or not they are tried as adults.

During a virtual hearing in November, Shelby County prosecutor Christopher West said all discovery and psychological exams have been completed for the teenagers - Miguel Andrade and Brayan Carrillo - and offers were made to both families a week prior.

West said he also discussed the offers with Pastor Eason-Williams' husband, children and siblings, who also were part of November's virtual hearing. 

The adult charged in the case, 21-year-old Eduard Rodriguez Tabora, appeared in court Wednesday, Oct. 19, where a witness and detective took the stand before a judge. The judge ruled the case would be held to state and go before a grand jury.
