Somehow, whatever happens in the trial, I see nothing but trouble in that kid's future. Maybe locking him up for a good while will at least prevent him from taking innocent others with him as he self destructs. The saddest part of it all is that no child starts life that way. Neglectful, absentee fathers/parents allow their kids' minds to develop on their own, along the path of least resistance with no guidance or nurturing. The day that society and the law has the ballz to hold parents fully responsible or accountable for everything their child does or is done to them from birth to adulthood, we will see the start of a rapid decline in juvenile delinquency. Parents would be forced, if only in their own interest, to play a more active role in guiding the lives of their offspring. The birth rate in poor/depressed communities would probably decline as well.
