Silvonus Shannon, 19, Eugene Riley, 18, and Eric Carson, 16, have been charged as adults in Thursday’s death of Derrion Albert, 16, Andy Conklin, a spokesman for the Cook County state’s attorney, said Monday. Albert’s beating death with wooden boards is depicted in a video that has been circulating on the Internet, and police were using that video to gather evidence.
