    Every kid who commits adult crimes should be charged as an adult.

      What about the case of a 10yo killing its abusive neo nazi father? Does the child fully understand the consequences of what it did, or did it just want the abuse to stop?

      That child got as many years jailtime as it was old at the time of the killing.

        I think we can all agree that killing Nazis is never a crime.

        Also, if he was being abused, that’s self defense. What he needed was a better lawyer.

        Change the address of the prison term but not the length.

            No, I understand it. I just don’t agree with you.

            Kids who kill on purpose, and not in self defense, deserve to be treated like any other human.

            Additionally, the parents should share in a good portion of then penalty.

            Obviously each case has its own circumstances, so we shouldn’t throw the book at every one.

            The kids in question were very much aware of what is right and wrong.

            It may seem like that based on police behavior, but that isn’t true.
