[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the reasoning for trying them as adults instead of as juveniles?[/quote]

The State's attorney said that by law 1st degree rape is always transferred to adult/criminal court. The attorneys for the defendants can request a waiver to have it sent back to juvenile court.[/quote]

The attorneys for the defendants [b]HAVE requested a waiver[/b] to have it sent back to juvenile court.  [/quote]

That courtroom is going to be filled to the brim. Can’t wait for the names to be released.[/quote]

Names?[/quote]

Names of the perpetrators is already in the news. The names and identity of victims should be protected. [/quote]

The students being charged are Jean Claude "JC" Abedi, Kristian "KJ" Jamal Lee, Will Daniel Smith, and Caleb Thorpe. All four are 15 years old, but are being charged as adults, prosecutors said.

This ABC news story makes it clear that this had been going on in the program for a while. It is mind boggling that the varsity team played. I hope the MCPD really do their best work on this.  Yet another example of why MCPS needs to be restructured - too many bureaucrats and not enough guidance counselors. Sick.
