A JUDGE MONDAY CONSIDERS THE RELEASE OF 20 YEAR OLD NEHEMIAH GRIEGO FROM JAIL. GRIEGO HAS BEEN IN CUSTODY SINCE HE WAS CONVICTED OF KILLING HIS PARENTS AND THREE SIBLINGS AT THEIR ALBUQUERQUE SOUTH VALLEY HOME WHEN HE WAS 15 YEARS OLD IN 2013.
GRIEGO WAS TO BE RELEASED ON MARCH 20TH, THIS 21ST BIRTHDAY. BUT THE STATE COURT OF APPEALS REVERSED THE DECISION. KOB TV REPORTS DISTRICT COURT WAS ORDERED TO REVISIT THE CASE AND TO ALLOW THE D-A’S OFFICE TO RESUBMIT EVIDENCE. A NEW HEARING ALLOWS THE COURT TO LOOK INTO WHETHER GRIEGO HAS BEEN AMENABLE TO TREATMENT.
DISTRICT COURT JUDGE JOHN ROMERO ON MONDAY WILL CONSIDER A MOTION TO KEEP GRIEGO LOCKED UP, PENDING A NEW HEARING.
