Detectives said Hensley was lured to the house through social media on a ruse to trade guns, but the intent all along was to rob him. An altercation ensued and Hensley was shot.
The sheriff said the teen charged with murder had a previous criminal history and was charged with making terroristic threats in the past, stating he had a bomb in his locker.
In the case of the alleged shooter, it is a mandatory bind over to adult court if probable cause is found. Both are in juvenile detention.
