Young Ariz. murder suspect's statement off-limits

Young Ariz. murder suspect's statement off-limits

Prosecutors in eastern Arizona have agreed not to use statements made by a 9-year-old boy as they pursue murder charges against him, according to court documents released Tuesday.

The boy's lawyers had asked a judge to throw out a 1-hour videotaped police interview in which the boy admitted to firing at least two shots each at his father and another man. The defense argued that he was illegally questioned without an attorney or family member present.
