CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. (WRN) — A motion hearing in the Chippewa Falls Lily Peters homicide has been rescheduled.
The Chippewa County judge in the case had an illness necessitating the Monday hearing be rescheduled for a later date.
That comes just days after the court ruled to seal records on behalf of 17-year-old defendant Carson Peters Burger. Court documents show Judge Stephen Gibbs granted a motion to seal the transcript of the investigators’ interview recording with Peters Burger as well as a flash drive containing a video of the interview. Only attorneys and the defendant can have access.
The Wisconsin Court of Appeals previously ruled that Peters Burger will be tried in adult court. He was 15 when 10-year-old Lilly Peters was killed in April 2022.
