Rashad Stoves (L), Artavius Underwood (middle) and Reginald Mims (R).Three teens charged with killing five men in an Ensley home will continue to face capital murder charges.
Last week, attorneys for Rashad Stoves, Artavius Underwood and Reginald Mims asked a judge to dismiss the charges in light of a recent Supreme Court ruling.
That ruling says no one under the age of 18 can face charges with a mandatory sentence of life without parole. Alabama's current statute says they can.
In his ruling today, Judge Wallace said while the ruling eliminates a mandatory sentence, it does not prohibit the possibility for that sentence.
Judge Wallace also denied all three defendants' request for bail.
