A 16-year-old accused of kicking in a bathroom door and using a baseball bat to bludgeon to death a woman who helped raise him will stand trial on a murder charge as an adult, a juvenile court judge decided Friday.
Isaac Nathaniel Rodriguez refused to give an official statement to investigators after he was taken into custody Sept. 12 — minutes after the body of Adriana Carrillo Terry, 63, was found inside her Northeast Side home, where he also lived.
