Four black teens who were a part of a mob who beat 17-year-old Jonathan Lewis to death appeared in court. In separate hearings, the two 16-year-olds and two 17-year-olds were ordered to remain held without bail pending a formal hearing to address their custody status. The teens are due back in court next week. Jonathan have been targeted after standing-up for a smaller friend who'd just been robbed by the mob, according to a GoFundMe page set up by his family.

All four teens are going to be charged as adults:
Dontral Beaver (16)
Gianni Robinson (17)
Damien Hernandez (17)
Treavion Randolph (16)

Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said that there other videos of the beating, not currently circulating online, show even more gruesome angles of the attack that led to Lewis’s death. I hope they will make an example out of them and throw away the key.
