Case Of Teen Charged In Fatal Stabbing Continued To November: Report

SHELTON, CT — The case of Raul Eliah Valle, a Milford teen accused of fatally stabbing 17-year-old Fairfield College Preparatory School student Jimmy McGrath during a Shelton house party in May, has been continued to November as attorneys review a substantial amount of evidence related to the case, the Connecticut Post reports.

According to the Connecticut Post, Valle appeared in state Superior Court in Milford on Monday, during which his lawyer said the defense wanted to review all of the evidence before deciding whether to request a probable cause hearing.

Valle, who was 16 at the time of his arrest, has been charged with murder and three counts of first-degree assault, according to police. He was released from custody May 23 after his father posted his bond and is currently under home confinement and monitored via GPS.

Valle briefly appeared in court in July, during which his attorney, Kevin Smith, requested Valle be allowed some time outside while at home, which a judge permitted.
