His body was found near his house around 5 p.m. that afternoon. An autopsy showed DeRemus had a heart condition. His death was ruled a homicide.

Howard was put in a juvenile detention center. He attended a brief court hearing by satellite on Wednesday. The district attorney is pushing for Howard to be tried as an adult. Howard’s next hearing is set for February 19. He will be held in the detention center until that time.
