(KFSN) &#8212; Action News was there when a teen girl was detained, and her Tesla seized, accused of being the getaway driver in the murder of Caleb Quick.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Now, nearly a year later, that girl finds herself in a Fresno County Courtroom for a high-stakes transfer hearing to see if she&#8217;ll be tried as an adult.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">From bombshell details to expert testimony, the past week revealed striking new evidence into the girl&#8217;s role in the crime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;They knew what they were going to do and followed through with the plan,&#8221; says Tony Capozzi, ABC30 Legal Analyst.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The courtroom was full each day, as family from all sides were present. In cowboy hats and matching shirts, Caleb&#8217;s friends honored the Clovis teen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">RELATED: <a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/abc30.com\/tag\/caleb-quick-murder\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The latest on the Caleb Quick murder<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;We&#8217;re locked arms right now were standing for him and for justice on Caleb,&#8221; says Stephen Quick, Caleb&#8217;s Dad.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The first day, a never-before-seen video of the grim moment Quick was shot played inside the courtroom. This as critical cell phone data from both teens were released, including locations and text messages.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Then on the second day, the judge ruled there is &#8220;overwhelming circumstantial evidence&#8221; to move forward with the transfer hearing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">On day three, two psychologists took to the stand; each examined the girl on five criteria, agreeing on all of them but one, the gravity of the crime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">And finally, on the fourth day, we learned that the girl has completed anger replacement training and also received several certificates during her time at the Juvenile Justice Center.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The girl defense team tells me they&#8217;re not backing down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;My feeling is that we shouldn&#8217;t have been here in the first place. I don&#8217;t think that the case should&#8217;ve been filed for transfer based on her conduct and her past and the way that she&#8217;s responded through this whole process,&#8221; says Sally Vecchiarelli, Defense Attorney.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">There is also new insight into the motive behind the murder.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">The prosecution&#8217;s psychologist, Dr. Blake Carmichael, found the girl had anger, saying, &#8220;here was certainly some intent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">This, as he referenced some alleged sexually related videos involving the girl&#8217;s friend and Caleb.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">But it&#8217;s the comments online about the potential motive that has created uproar. The alleged shooter&#8217;s mom took to TikTok in a now-deleted video. Caleb&#8217;s dad gave Action News his reaction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t do any justice to her son or my son it&#8217;s just you know let the truth speak what it is and we&#8217;ll go from there,&#8221; says Stephen Quick.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">We spoke with the main prosecutor today, who says this timeline is due to scheduling and not necessarily a delay in the case.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">For news and weather updates, follow Brisa Col\u00f3n on <a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/BrisaABC30\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>, <a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/brisacolontv\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/brisacolontv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2026 KFSN-TV.
