“D.C. laws prohibit a 13-year-old from being tried as an adult. At 15-years-old, the D.C. Attorney General’s Office could petition for a case to be transferred to the adult court system. Court sources told FOX 5 that usually happens during the first hearing.”

“The Washington Post reported there was no indication the prosecutor was planning to do so following the second hearing.”
But the @USAO_DC should explore federal charges as an adult at least against the 15-year-old (for example, maybe Hobbs Act robbery?).
