The Iowa teenagers accused in the killing of a beloved Spanish teacher took note of her daily routine, ambushed her during her walk and then killed her, prosecutors said in court documents.

Nohema Graber, 66, taught at Fairfield High School, which is in the southeastern part of the state. Preliminary evidence indicated that she suffered from "trauma to the head." 

Sixteen-year-olds Willard Noble Chaiden Miller and Jeremy Everett Goodale have been charged with first-degree murder.

Willard Noble Chaiden Miller and Jeremy Everett Goodale, both 16 at the time, were charged as adults in the killing. The Associated Press reported that the new details were found in a court filing on Dec. 23. The report pointed out that lawyers for the teens have asked that they be tried as juveniles. 

Prosecutors have challenged the request, saying that Goodale, if convicted in juvenile court, would be released in less than 24 months.
