One point of view at this topic is that the minimum age of 10 for criminal responsibility should remain stable. To begin with, the biggest argument that supports this opinion has to do with the fact that many crimes, more or less serious, are committed by young children even at the age of 10 years old. This fact can be noticed at the Bulger case. More specifically, James Patrick Bulger was a two year-old boy from Kirkby, Mereyside, England who was abducted, tortured and murdered by two ten-year-old boys, Robert Thompson and Jon Venables. He was led away from the shopping center where he was with his mother and his body was found in Liverpoool, two days after his murder.

Shooting Basca and Finch was all premeditated.

The evidence for this case was very unexplainable, but of course, the state went after Hae’s ex-boyfriend Adnan who really had nothing to do with the murder.

The main argument expressed in the article "Greg Ousley is Sorry for Killing His Parents. is that Enough?" is that juveniles/kids should not be sentenced to prison for long term, even if they commit severe crimes, and they have the ability to rehabilitate themselves, so they should not serve this long term sentences when they are showing improvement. An example that gives the author is the case of Greg Ousley, a teen who killed his parents at the age of 14, and that now with a age of 33 years he still serving the 60 years sentence. The author Scott Anderson interviewed Greg during a few sessions. When Anderson interviewed Greg, he saw a completely mature man with wishes to work with young people, to teach them what can go wrong by using his life as an

On October 7, 1998, Matthew Shepard, a gay 21-year-old college student, was abducted by two men who took him to a remote area, tied him to a fence, severely beat him with the butt of a pistol, and left him to die in the cold of the night (Matthew Shepard Foundation, “About Us”). Matthew Shepard’s death became a symbol for the deadly effect that prejudice can have on an innocent, young adult, and it gave people a chance to begin to understand how to accept people of different sexual orientations. However, 18 years later, America still hasn’t learned from Matthew Shepard’s death, and that is most evident in the Orlando night club shooting.

There was a case of a 13 year old boy killing a 19 year old because he was acting out a plot he had seen on TV. The real question about this is why did a 13 year old have unsupervised access to a deadly weapon in the first place. Lousy parenting could be largely at blame for many of the incidents like this one. If a child believes it is okay to kill people just because they saw it on TV or in a video game then they haven’t had someone telling them right from wrong while growing up.

Intro Reading on Carl Panzram sodomized over 1000 and murdered 21 men, Carl only went after men and young boys in a way to fight his own sexuality.

There were plenty of years for him to try advancing on a female, but never did and always went looking mostly for a young boy.
