Issiah Mekhi Ross, the 17-year-old accused of shooting two other juveniles to death on Sept. 17 in Mebane, North Carolina, appeared in an Orange County courtroom Tuesday.
Authorities released Ross' name after charging him with murder as an adult in connection to the deaths of Lyric Woods, 14, and Devin Clark, 18.
The suspect's Tuesday court appearance was procedural after the 17-year-old's case was transferred from juvenile court to Superior Court, according to CBS 17.
Family members of the deceased also appeared in court wearing t-shirts that read, "Justice for Lyric Woods" and "Justice for Devin," according to CBS 17 reporter Hayley Fixler, who posted a video of Ross walking into the Orange County courtroom on Tuesday morning.
Prior to Ross' arrest, on Oct. 5, Delaware State Police arrested and charged Nakaysha Ross, 22, and McKenzie Mitchell, 21, with hindering prosecution after they allegedly harbored Ross, who was considered a fugitive for 18 days before police finally caught him, according to Orange County and Delaware authorities.
Ross was located at their residence, according to Delaware State Police.
