Prosecutors will seek adult trials for four South Carolina teens accused of murder in the shooting death of a Rock Hill man over discipline due to Instagram use, according to officials and court testimony.

Police have said in previous court hearings Larry Ingram Jr, 38, was “executed” Nov 14 in a plot by the four teens.
