Question by ♫☻♫: 14 year old lured in 4 y/o neighbor, sodomized and drowned him…..punishment?
Do you have any sympathy towards a young teenager who commits a crime of this magnitude? Sympathy such as “He was probably abused too…he needs mental help”…etc.

What is a fair punishment when they are minors like this? They are minors, but at what point does the magnitude of the crime outweigh the technicalities of age?
