Brat who shot and killed his Mom and is now 12, is facing adult time. [View all]

As in 60 years in jail.

I saw a clip from "Law And Order" that showcased a psycho brat who killed a younger boy, and was killed in a hallway by the other boy's Father.

This is what I'm reminded of when I read about this little psycho.
"Oh, but Mom wouldn't buy him a VR set!"
So he threw a tantrum and shot and killed his Mom.

The Milwaukee boy charged with killing his mom when he was just 10 years old will be tried in adult court.

The boy is now 12, and until now, a court order prevented us from showing his face or identifying him by name.

The boy is Noah Mann-Tate. He's charged with shooting and killing his mom, Quiana Mann, in November 2022 inside their home near 87th and Magnolia streets in Milwaukee.

A judge ruled Monday that his case will remain in adult court.

According to the criminal complaint, the boy was in fourth grade when he shot his mom in the face at close range. Investigators say the boy was upset because his mom would not buy him a virtual reality headset.
