Justice Stalled One Year After Zane's Death | Virginia Beach News

One year after 19-year-old Zane Hughes was murdered near the Avalon Fishing Pier, his mother refuses to give up as the case stalls—delayed by the missing autopsy report. Three teens face charges: Henry Hargis, accused of pulling the trigger, and Kayden Lindsey and Zachary Rose, charged as accessories. The DA says no trial can proceed without the report, frustrating the grieving family who’ve also clashed with prosecutors over transparency and media involvement. While defendants return to court in August—with two still jailed and one on bond with an ankle monitor—the DA expects no more charges. The mother vows to keep fighting for victims’ rights and systemic reform, determined to ensure justice doesn’t wait another year.
