• Utah County Prosecutors want to try teen charged with killing mom, stepbrother as an adult (kutv.com) — A Saratoga Springs teen has now been formally charged with aggravated murder and obstruction of justice in the 2025 killings of his mother and 8-year-old half-brother at their home. Utah County prosecutors want the case moved from juvenile to adult court, which could mean a potential prison term of at least 25 years to life instead of release by age 25.
