The mother of a teenager stabbed to death in a New York City classroom came face to face with her son’s accused killer in court Wednesday. Abel Cedeno pleaded not guilty after being indicted on manslaughter and assault charges. Rana Novini reports.
A teenager who says he was bullied before a fatal stabbing at a Bronx school has been released on bail.
Eighteen-year-old Abel Cedeno was released Wednesday after a judge lowered his bail from $500,000 to $250,000.
His lawyers have said Cedeno endured a long history of bullying.
Cedeno originally was charged with murder in the September death of 15-year-old Matthew McCree. He was indicted on a lesser charge of first-degree manslaughter.
The victim's mother, Louna Dennis, says she is angry about the bail and feels like the system is "failing" her.
Dennis has said her son "was no bully."
