The two suspects in the case are 10 and 11 years old and have both been charged with involuntary manslaughter and simple battery. Due to Georgia law regarding minors, their names cannot be released to the public.

While it was initially reported there was no foul play in Bush’s death after the autopsy, police changed their tune after new information they discovered during their investigation. But in a new twist in the case, the mother of one of the boys accused has now been charged.
