10 year old white kid killed a 90 year old woman by crushing her throat with a cane and punching her several times in the throat because she yelled at him for entering her room

he's being tried as an adult for criminal homicide

while the kid clearly has mental issues, i see no point in taking a chance of reintroducing this mentally messed up kid back into society after attempts at "rehabilitation" - who knows what he'll do when he grows up and is capable of much more?

that aside, 10 is old enough to know what you're doing and i support trying this kid as an adult ~ i do believe him when he says he was just trying to hurt the lady and not kill her but that's pretty messed up enough as it is

only strange thing here is they revealed pictures of the kid which i thought were not permitted for minors

thoughts?

I agree that trying a 10 year old as an adult really benefits no one.

Agreed. Lets go with a death sentence and save everyone's time.

I can recall being 10 a bit, and I knew what the fuck I was doing for the most part. Sure I didn't understand the world and all that, but right and wrong were very clear by that point. Kid is either insane and needs to be on drugs and in a cage for the rest of his life. Or needs to be put down like a dog. Hes more than likely just going to end up hurting more people down the line anyways.

That said, I can think of a million reverse situations where if he was the victim, the courts would claim "hes only a child". So trying him as an adult seems slightly retarded.

There's no way a 10 year old should be tried as an adult. Try having a conversation with one while asking yourself this question.

That's a bit of a biased judgement because I know the number 90 is creeping in.

That's payback for you using derogatory words when I tried to support you via those death threats. We're even now.

Wow you bring up his wife last week, and now you're talking about his age.

Just how petty are you?
