Evaluation hearing held for Brown in juvenile case
A Tuesday hearing before Common Pleas Court Judge John W. Hodge covered Jordan Brown, now 18, in a workload of evaluation proceedings. Public access was barred due to juvenile court rules though defense attorneys confirmed the session occurred. The case traces to 2009 when Kenzie Houk was shot in New Beaver Borough, with Brown previously charged as an adult and later found responsible in a 2012 juvenile court ruling.
