[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Update on the case:

13 yr old cannot be tried as an adult under any circumstances, even for murder in DC

15 yr old can be tried as an adult but only at discretion of the judge and burden is high

Prosecutors are working on a plea deal.  Next hearing in April..

I am stunned.  This is so depressing.

Oh sorry. It was already posted ^. The 15 year old can and therefore should be charged as an adult, given the heinous crime and that there is possibly an earlier carjacking charge for her? That's exactly the kind of trck record that should bump her to adult court. The younger one should be in until 21, and hopefully the city provides education, job training and counseling--but who the heck knows what they do with these kids, since the ore offender rate is so high doesn't seem like much![/quote]
