Accused child killer in court

One of two people accused of kidnapping and murdering three-year-old Kamile "Cupcake" McKinney is expected to appear in court today.

The hearing for Patrick Stallworth was delayed to September 9th due to an appeal of his federal kidnapping conviction.

Derick Brown is the co-defendant in the case. Both are facing state capitol murder charges for the little girl's death.
