11-Year-Old Confesses to Double Murder in Louisiana

An 11-year-old boy in Minden, Louisiana, has confessed to fatally shooting former Mayor Joe Cornelius Sr., 82, and his daughter, Keisha Miles, 31. The boy, a relative of the victims, was found at the scene and initially gave a misleading account before admitting to the crime. Two handguns, whose calibers matched shell casings found near the bodies, were recovered. The motive remains unclear, though there were reports of an argument over video game-related credit card charges. The boy is charged with two counts of first-degree murder and is being held on a $500,000 bond. The investigation is ongoing, with authorities awaiting further forensic evidence and a decision on whether the boy will be tried as an adult.
