An 11-year-old boy in Georgia was recently sentenced for his role in the killing of an 8-year-old boy who was drowned at a construction site in a so-called “borrow pit” earlier this year.

On May 15, Noah Bush, 8, disappeared from his family’s home in Jesup — a small town roughly 70 miles southwest of Savannah.

On the day in question, he went out with two other boys. Mistaken for friends, they turned out to be his killer and his killer’s accomplice.

Now, each of those boys, who are white, will spend two years in youth detention for their roles in the Black boy’s death and initial cover-up.
