The siblings will testify but not in person. It's been done via TV so they will not have to see the man accused of killing their brother.

Brian Coulter is accused of beating 8-year-old Kendrick Lee to death. The boy's body was found in an apartment closet nearly a year after he died.. The siblings were set to testify in person on Wednesday, but their adoptive mother pleaded for the judge to reconsider.

The judge ultimately agreed, allowing the siblings to testify via television where they will not see Coulter. Coulter was in a dating relationship with Kendrick and the siblings' mother, Gloria Williams. During that time, Coulter and Williams left the children at the apartment to go live somewhere else. They would occasionally drop off junk food for the children, investigators said.
