This is what the 13-year-old teenager who killed his mother in the United States looked in court: defense asks for change of detention center

The arrival at the court of Derek Rosa, the 13-year-old teenager arrested for the murder of his mother, caused excitement and the press waited for the moment to capture images and impressions.

47 days after the crime, on Tuesday, November 28, 2023, Rosa appeared in court for the first time since he was arrested for the high-profile case in October.

Noticias Telemundo described in his review that Derek Rosa’s physical changes are starting to be noticed. “A shy moustache” is written on his face.

“At least at first glance,” they said, “he seemed calm.” In the courtroom he seemed relaxed. The press reported that the boy looked around the room. “His father, José, blew him a kiss; “His grandmother was crying,” the New York Post described.

Tried it as an adult

He committed the murder on October 12. Because he took the life of his mother, whom he left in bed, he will be judged as an adult. This was decided by a grand jury.

The Hialeah juvenile has been charged with first-degree murder.

Next to the bed where Irina García lay in a cradle, lay her sister. At the time of that tragedy, the baby was 14 days old.

Since October, he has been spending his days in an adult detention center called Metro West in Miami.

The attorney for the teen and his family, Dayliseth Rielo, is scheduled to present evidence on Friday, December 1, as to why Metro West is not a place for Derek Rosa. The judge sent him to that center the last week of October.
