"Police say all suspects were apprehended, witnesses were interviewed and several pieces of evidence were collected at the scene. Two male teenagers are now being held at the Montgomery County juvenile detention center awaiting charges."

They should be charged with the murder of their accomplice. They engaged in an act that caused their buddies death.

Perhaps a FReeper lawyer can help out here?

“They should be charged with the murder of their accomplice. They engaged in an act that caused their buddies death.”

From what I’ve read, in California, yes. Ohio—?
