By new court documents, the adolescent accused of killing 10-year-old Lily Peters lured her off a hiking route into a forested area in Wisconsin, where he reportedly killed her before returning to the crime site to properly conceal her body.
According to a criminal complaint filed Friday, the 14-year-old suspect told police that late last month he was riding his hoverboard beside Lily down a route to sexually abuse and murder her.

He urged Lily to leave the trail with him to go exploring in the woods, then assaulted her, according to the complaint. He fled the scene because he was afraid but later returned to cover the girl's body with leaves.
Lily went missing on April 24 after failing to come home from her aunt's residence in Chippewa Falls. The next morning, searchers discovered her body. A preliminary autopsy revealed that she died as a result of blunt force injuries and strangling. Following the completion of toxicity testing, a final result is expected in 4-6 weeks.
In the murder of Illiana Lily Peters, the suspected killer was arrested on April 27 and charged with first-degree deliberate homicide, first-degree sexual assault, and first-degree sexual assault of a child under the age of 13, as per New York Post.
According to the suspect, he assisted Lily in picking up her bike before riding his hoverboard with her along a route. He then lured the victim into the woods, where he said he struck her in the stomach, knocked her to the ground, whacked her with a stick, choked her, and sexually abused her.
On a $1 million bail, the suspect is being housed in a juvenile institution. Apart from monitored communication with his siblings, a judge ordered him to avoid any interaction with youngsters, as per Crime Online.
Lily Peters' Cousin Killer Is a Son of Convicted Pedophile
DailyMail.com has learned that the 14-year-old boy accused of the rape and death of Wisconsin youngster Lily Peters is the son of a convicted pedophile. After being found with a stockpile of pornographic photographs of prepubescent females on his phone, Adam Berger, 37, got three years in prison.
Berger's 14-year-old son, Carson Peters-Berger, has been charged with three crimes in connection with Lily's death: first-degree deliberate homicide, first-degree sexual assault, and first-degree sexual assault of a minor.
Some of them had Berger's face overlaid on them. Other photos showed the kids in half-dressed outfits, including one with a girl wearing a green feather boa and black high heels and another with a pink tutu skirt.
According to court documents, all of the disturbing images centered on the children's genitalia. He also had drug paraphernalia in his residence, including four crack pipes.
Prosecutors said in court that Peters-Berger meant to rape and kill the victim from the beginning when he left the house with her to follow the trail. Peters-Berger is now being held in the Northwest Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, and will be back in court next week.
Adam Berger is presently residing in a halfway home in Eau Claire after being released from Oshkosh Correctional Institution in April 2021, according to DailyMail.com. He is still on supervised probation and has been placed on the sex offender register. He and his attorneys opposed prolonged probation because it would have prevented him from seeing his kid, whom he characterized as the best of me in a letter.
Davis was also accused of attempting to limit his communication with Berger's friends and family, according to her. Berger and Davis, Lily's father Alex Peters' sister, had a brief romance, and the 14-year-old is the result of it.
