Teen accused of deadly Clovis library shooting to be tried as an adult

CLOVIS, N.M. (KRQE) – The suspect in the deadly mass shooting that happened inside a Clovis library was indicted by a grand jury Friday.

Nathaniel Jouett was indicted on two counts of first-degree murder, seven counts of Child Abuse, four counts of Aggravated Battery and 20 counts of Assault with Intent to Commit a Violent Felony.

According to court records, the 16-year-old told investigators he had been thinking “bad things” for some time and initially planned to target his school because he was mad.

He also told investigators he didn’t know why he picked the Clovis public library.

Two people died and four others were injured in the incident.
