A disposition hearing is scheduled for Thursday to determine a punishment for 11-year-old Marquez who was arrested after the Lee County Sheriff’s Office said he texted a friend a picture of a gun and referenced an upcoming event at their Cape Coral elementary school. The story made international headlines when the sheriff’s office released the video of Marquez being walked in handcuffs into a patrol car. Fox 4 does not normally identify juveniles charged with crimes; however, due to the public nature of the case and the fact that Marquez testified in his case, we are choosing to name him.
