Nov. 11, 2020 1:15p

(WGTD)---The case of a 15-year-old student who stabbed a classmate to death inside of Bradford High School three years ago may be close to a resolution.

Attorneys for the state and Timothy Carson announced Wednesday that they've reached a tentative agreement on a plea. A formal plea hearing has been scheduled for next Tuesday.

Carson claimed that he was acting in self-defense when he stabbed Dezjon Taylor in a study hall in April of 2017. 

Legal wrangling since then resulted in unusual delays in bringing the case to a conclusion.
