An 11-year-old was sentenced on October 5, 2023, to two years at a youth detention facility for his role in the drowning death of 8-year-old Noah Bush in a construction pit in Wayne County, Georgia. Noah's body was discovered on May 16 after he was reported missing, and while authorities initially did not suspect foul play, evidence later emerged indicating he had been pushed into the water. Noah's family expressed dissatisfaction with the sentence, calling it insufficient for the loss of their son, who they described as a bright and loving child.
