THE CASE OF CONVICTED KILLER NEHEMIAH GRIEGO HAS TAKEN AN UNEXPECTED TURN. KOB TV REPORTS CHILDRENS COURT JUDGE JOHN ROMERO HAS RECUSED HIMSELF FOLLOWING A WEEK OF TESTIMONY ON WHETHER THE NOW 21 YEAR OLD GRIEGO SHOULD BE SENTENCED AS A JUVENILE OR AN ADULT. THAT MEANS THE ENTIRE PROCESS WILL HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN.
GRIEGO WAS 15 YEARS OLD WHEN HE SHOT AND KILLED FIVE FAMILY MEMBERS IN THEIR SOUTH VALLEY HOME IN 2013. HE WAS ORIGINALLY SENTENCED AS A JUVENILE AND WAS TO BE RELEASED WHEN HE TURNED 21. BUT THE COURT OF APPEALS SENT THE CASE BACK TO CHILDRENS COURT FOR ANOTHER HEARING.
