JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Constant trouble has followed the three brothers in jail awaiting trial in the slaying of a young Jacksonville girl, according to authorities.

Channel 4 viewers may remember first seeing Tijuan, Rasheem and Terrell Dubose when the brothers made their first appearance in court on murder charges. At that time, the trio was seen laughing and smiling at the cameras, despite facing serious charges.

All three are charged in the slaying of 8-year-old Dreshawna Davis, who was fatally shot when a hail of bullets riddled her family's home.

Davis died trying to protect her cousin, her family said.

A year after being indicted, the Dubose brothers have racked up a thick file of disciplinary reports in jail.

"They are all just miscreants," said Jacksonville Sheriff's Office spokesman Ken Jefferson. "They just have a total disrespect for themselves as well as authorities."

The brothers' records cite inappropriate conduct such as fighting, stealing, lying, masturbating, drugs, and disobedience.

"Their behavior in the detention facility has just been despicable," Jefferson said.

Police said the whole list of misconduct is what the Dubose brothers have been up to since they've been arrested.

"They don't cooperate. They've been involved with fights. They are just a menace to society," Jefferson said.

Police said it's not hard to believe the accusations against the Dubose brothers, based on their conduct in public. One of the brothers made an obscene jester to TV cameras during his last court appearance.

"They have no respect for the judge. These guys -- they are in the right place," said Jefferson.

The Dubose brothers are expected to be back in court within the next few months.
