Last year, the boys father, Terry King, was beaten with a baseball bat before his house was set on fire.
A judge initially threw out the boys convictions and ordered mediation because prosecutors used conflicting theories in two trials.
In one, the boys were charged with murder and in another a family friend was charged.
