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.

    Natalie Hardison was arrested on 3 charges, including a probation violation and making false statements.

    Wayne County Sheriff Chuck Moseley tells News 3 that the charges Hardison faces are not directly connected to Bush’s death or the case against her son.

      Yeah, the article comes to a conclusion that directly contradicts the source they quoted.

      “local Georgia police have now ruled Bush’s death a homicide and have charged two minors in the case, claiming that they pushed him into the pit where he drowned, according to the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office.”
