Lake County resident Rosalie Adams, who has pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and attempted murder, appeared in court Thursday, where Judge Joyce Hinrichs gave the Humboldt County Probation Department additional time to prepare a report recommending whether it feels Adams is fit for the juvenile justice system. Court documents shed new light on the case against Adams and her alleged accomplice, 20-year-old Phoenix Triton King, indicating a stolen gun may have triggered the dispute that led to the shootings....
King faces a potential sentence of 40 years to life in prison if convicted in the case, as does Adams if she's tried as an adult. If convicted as a juvenile, she faces a maximum sentence of eight years in a juvenile detention center.

The defense asked for autopsy photos and photos from the scene at the Samoa dunes where James John James, 44, was fatally shot and Matthew Blaine Lewis, 41, was wounded during a Sept. 8 confrontation.
Deputy District Attorney David Nims said putting the discovery evidence together was a “top priority.”
King and his girlfriend, 16-year-old Rosalie Adams, were arrested Sept. 9 following a multi-agency manhunt on the Samoa Peninsula that was launched after a bloodied Lewis flagged down motorists on State Route 299. Adams has also pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and attempted murder.
King is scheduled to be back in court on Feb. 27.
