You have the wrong area. It was Kennedy and 7th; this is near my neighborhood, there is a too much gun violence in our area.

In our area...USA?

The Ag needs to take this on. The amount of plea bargaining on gun crimes in DC is shocking, not to mention the slap on the wrist with no rehab for under-26 (TY Charles Allen)

This will not be in the AG's jurisdiction. This falls to the USAO. It amazes me how the most vocal about prosecutions know so little about who does the prosecuting.

The perp looks so young .., probably mental illness involved … he used his real name on that weird online board (boasting about being non PC) so he wanted to be caught.

One of his messages said “God forgive me”. Some part of his mind knows what he has done is extremely Wrong.

Thank Heavens no one has been killed. It is a miracle.

Do you not think misdemeanor gun charges should be addressed seriously in DC?
https://criminallawyerwashingtondc.com/dc-gun-lawyer/plea-agreements/
"Common DC Plea Bargains
Common plea agreements in DC gun cases for a felony gun charge attempt to have that charged reduced to a misdemeanor in exchange for a plea of guilty. When the charge begins as a misdemeanor gun charge, that is most likely handled by the Office of the Attorney General as opposed to the US Attorney’s Office. In that situation, the defense attorney may be able to secure a diversion agreement where the defendant ends up with a case with no conviction."

Oh please what? You don’t think a young person who is mentally deranged to the point of Indiscriminate shooting into a school needs to be captured and treated for mental illness ? I doubt he would even be able to stand trial in his current state.

An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind.

I work in an inpatient psych facility. We “treat” our patients, discharge them, and readmit many of them a few months/a year later. They don’t stay on their meds and end up right back where they started. We have a very high forensic population (committed crimes, awaiting trial, etc) so plenty of violent patients. Getting them treatment isn’t always the answer. Many times they do belong in jail.

I am not sure why you are wasting time reinforcing that you don't understand the legal system in DC. If an adult is charged with a felony, it is the USAO's case. If the USAO chooses not to prosecute a felony, but a misdemeanor charge is still possible, it could fall to the AG. But, the AG, can't prosecute the felony. If you want a gun charge to be prosecuted, you need to focus on the USAO who will make the decision. Demonstrating that you don't understand any of this by ranting and raving about the AG and Charles Allen does nothing but demonstrate your lack of understanding.

That could well be. I have worked in Psych units and many of the staff are me as much as the patients. 😅
However, I have read that many people in jail in US (highest incarceration rates in the developed world) have untreated mental illnesses. I am all for accountability but medical conditions, and psychiatric conditions are as real as physical ones, need to be treated.

Anyway, this young man needs to be captured, treated, held accountable and hopefully rehabilitated.

He can still be treated, given meds and put in jail for a long time.
ALSO we need to make it impossible to get semiautomatic weapons available to civilians. Enough!

I love how the mental illness narrative comes into play when the suspects identity is revealed.

He's not mentally ill. He's a terrorist and criminal and he needs to be put under the jail.

So am I getting this right from the video that the shooter was shooting at and into a school? It doesn’t seem the media is reporting the block. Why aren’t they saying the target was a school?

Ranting and racing? Are you serious?
