Teen Sentenced 25 Years to Life for Spanish Teacher’s Murder

If you think teens are too immature to read a book about LGBT people.....then they should be considered too immature to be treated like adults in the legal system

Life in prison without possibility of parole.

I don't care whether some people whine about "cruel and unusual" - if you're going to take that stance, then ANY prison time which deprives someone of their freedom is "cruel and unusual" and shouldn't be enacted.

In some criminal cases, being a teen and potentially lacking adult decision making skills may be an issue. In all cases involving MURDER for revenge, you've demonstrated that you're a sociopath and a danger to society, so the risk should not be taken. You've proven you lack a basic capacity for empathy.

He's only sorry because he has had a taste of prison.

But is he sorry that he took this innocent woman's life, and the life of a mom from her two sons?

I don't think so.

Agreed, but getting out in forties as a felon will be rough.

After his his sentence, his ass will be so raw, and his employment opportunities so bleak, he’ll be turning tricks on the busiest street corner in town.

Not at forty-something . . .

I can still remember being 10 years old and definitely knowing - and feeling - what's right or wrong. This guy has something wrong with him.
