Princeton teen to stand trial as adult on murder charges

A Princeton teenager indicted by a Hopkins County grand jury this week faces trial as an adult in connection with the murder of his mother and attempted murder of his stepfather. Kentucky State Police charged Adam Teems, 17, with the crimes, following the Aug. 26 shooting at the couple’s residence in Dalton. Prosecutors said the 17 year old remains in custody at a juvenile facility in Owensboro. He cannot be held with adult prisoners before the age of 18.
