Pre-Trial Hearing
A gag order was issued in the case several months ago, so there's been little reporting on the developments, other than the charges against all three teen suspects have been bumped up to first degree murder in the senseless fatal shooting of Australian exchange student and baseball player Chris Lane.

Today, a hearing is scheduled and the three little assholes are all scheduled to appear. Hopefully, the details will be documented public record and we'll learn more.
Snip:
DUNCAN, Okla. — Three teenagers accused of fatally shooting an Australian baseball player as he jogged down an Oklahoma street, allegedly because they were bored, are expected in court Tuesday.
Police allege that Chancey Allen Luna and James Francis Edwards Jr., who are both 16, and Michael Dewayne Jones, 18, randomly targeted and shot Chris Lane last summer. Each teenager is charged with first-degree murder.
Investigators have said Lane was shot while jogging down a tree-lined street near the home of his girlfriend's parents in Duncan, about 80 miles south of Oklahoma City.
"They saw Christopher go by, and one of them said: 'There's our target,'" Duncan Police Chief Ford said in August. "The boy who has talked to us (Jones) said: 'We were bored and didn't have anything to do, so we decided to kill somebody.'"
Prosecutors alleged that Luna pulled the trigger while sitting in the back seat of a car being driven by Jones, and Edwards was in the passenger seat.
