WE WON’T KNOW UNTIL JANUARY IF AN ALBUQUERQUE TEEN WILL BE TRIED AS AN ADULT OR A JUVENILE FOR ALLEGEDLY KILLING HIS PARENTS AND THREE SIBLINGS. THAT’S WHEN A HEARING WILL DETERMINE THAT FOR NEHEMIAH GRIEGO.
THE BERNALILLO COUNTY D-A’S OFFICE SAYS GRIEGO PLEADED GUILTY TO SECOND DEGREE MURDER LAST WEEK IN THE DEATHS IN JANUARY OF 2013 AT THE FAMILY HOME IN THE SOUTH VALLEY. HE ALSO ENTERED A GUILTY PLEA TO THREE COUNTS OF CHILD ABUSE RESULTING IN DEATH.
GRIEGO WAS 15 AT THE TIME OF THE KILLINGS. DEPUTIES SAY HE SHOT HIS MOTHER AND SIBLINGS AS THEY SLEPT, THEN AMBUSHED HIS FATHER WHEN HE RETURNED HOME.
