Prosecutors unsuccessfully requested the judge set bond at $10 million, arguing the teens’ release from jail would put the community at risk.
Joseph Koenig, Nicholas “Mitch” Karol-Chik and Zachary Kwak, all 18, must also surrender their passport and driver’s license, comply with protection orders against victims in the case, are prohibited from drinking alcohol and must be monitored by GPS, 1st Judicial District Court Judge Christopher Zenisek said during a hearing Wednesday morning in Jefferson County.
50 year prison sentence incoming.
I think everyone hopes they throw the book at them. Maybe except their parents.
Didn’t one of the patents attempted to cover it up and was arrested?
Did they really? I must have missed that. Would not be surprised at all.

Helicopter sentencing.
Could you imagine trying to barter cigarettes for extra food and your parents yelling at you in the next cell over in the clink? That’s gotta be bad for the street cred.
My parents would have turned me in immediately because they are good people.
Same. And I would turn in my son if he was this evil. What a heartbreaking story overall. I really feel for Alexa’s mother.
At least they’re all 18 so no one is getting the minor hand slap treatment. That won’t bring their daughter back, though.
Yes, off to adult prison for a long time they go. Infuriating that someone had to die.
