Explain Why Juveniles Should Be Trialed As Adults

From example a young boy named Lionel Tate, who was 12 years at the time his crime was that he beat up a six year girl to death. He was charged as an adult and charged as first degree murder. Now a days young children cannot be charged as an adult because the court ruled a law on June 25, 2012 that no children under the age of 18 cannot be charged as an adult. So it 's okay for a child at the age of 14 to kill their parents and not be charged or for a 13 year boy to beat their father to death? So these kids were charged as adults, but that 's been because the court didn´t ruled the law until 2012 that they can’t be tried as an adult.

After most people hear what Perry has gone through you immediately give him a get out of jail free card right? You think that since he had a difficult upbringing he should be exempt from receiving the death penalty? Although you may think this, this is certainly not an excuse for such a violent act. Throughout In Cold Blood, Capote attempts to portray to the reader that Smith in a way should be exempt from the crime he commited and how one should not blame it on Smith himself, but his psychological background. Specifically when Al Dewey, the head of the Clutter murder investigation, states how the crime was not in fact Smiths fault.

I believe that no one want to lose their love ones from gun violence. Allowing students to carry firearms on college campus would likely compromise the lives and safety of innocent students, faculty, and staff. We can start by rectifying the problem and not adding to the problem of gun violence by allowing guns on

Teenage Criminals Teenage criminals should be tried as an adult after they do an illegal event, or they take someone's life. When teenage criminals commit a crime, they should not be tried as a juvenile, but they should be tried as adults. (Need to put in hints at supporting detail). (Transition to 1st paragraph) Teenage criminals should be tried as adults when they commit a crime. When a kid commits a crime, they should be tried as an adult because they have either done something illegal, or they have taken someone's life.

“The search is over, Montag is dead; a crime against society has been avenged.” (Bradbury 142). In the end, the government couldn’t find Montag, but because everyone was watching the search for him on their TV’s, the government killed an innocent man pretending it was Montag. The society was glad Montag was dead, even though it wasn 't really him.

Juveniles should be tried as adults due to being aware of their crimes and having an intention to kill, however, brain development and maturity can play a role into the reason why teens kill. With being tried as an adult juveniles should be granted the opportunity of freedom pending on their rehabilitation status and if requirements are not met, convicts will have to complete the remainder of their sentence. People have long argued that juveniles who commit a murder should not be tried as an adult due the juvenile not being aware of their crime. Awareness, as defined by the Webster Dictionary, is “the knowledge and understanding that something is happening or exists”. Having the perception to comprehend the occurrence of an event is not a dumbfounded characteristic.

Dick believed it was for his “scams” he was doing on people in Nevada. Once they are in custody the officers start to question them about the night of the murder and the two “friends” turn on each other. Dick and Perry were both executed in 1965. “At the time not a soul was sleeping Holcomb heard them- four shotgun blasts that, all told, ended six human lives” (Capote 5). I now know that the other two lives that ended the night of the Clutter murder was Dick and

The ability to handle out the death penalty should be available to penalize the felons with the most serious of charges. The death penalty would bring peace to victims' family, bring about justice and further prevent future crimes. I would be the prosecutor that comes out with justice in my hands. About every minute you can count on

Life without parole Juveniles who commit first or second degree murder should they receive a mandatory life sentence without parole? Most supreme court justices agree that this sentence violates the eighth amendment , banned on cruel and unusual punishment. But in my belief everyone knows their right from their wrongs, even if you was a child who grew up in a bad society and was left abandoned. I agree that juveniles who committed a crime that involves first or second degree murder should receive a life sentence without a chance of parole because equality everyone deserve the same treatment , adolescents should know their right from wrongs , and last but not least keep the streets safe.

Now, I can agree with some of the laws the movement is pushing but most of it can easily be debunked. If the nation wants stricter background checks and mental health checks I completely agree with those statements. But, raising the purchasing limit to 21 for a rifle does not help anything, the child who tried to shoot up a Maryland was a seventeen-year-old student and he had a handgun (which is only permitted until the age of 21). What I am saying, is a criminal can easily get their hands on a firearm if they wanted to. But too strict of gun control can lead to great, law abiding citizens without protection of their selves or their families.

This remind me of the case against a 11 year old boy who shot and killed a 3 year boy. In the case of this 11 year old boy I think he should not be released from jail. He “accidentally shooting a 3-year-old boy,” I think even if it was an accident, he was going to kill someone else if they

Prisoners shouldn 't be allowed to be released from prison after fifteen years because they deserve death penalty. There are some statistics that demonstrates that they are going to continue performing felonies. Also there are studios that demonstrates that letting free a prisoner affect his family and the family of the victim. The death penalty should be applied on those cases because it is less expensive for the government and it would keep the country more safe. Prisoner 's sentences for first degree murder shouldn 't be eligible for parole hearing after fifteen years in jail because there is a probability that they continue to commit felonies, and because the seriousness of the crime it is necessary apply the death penalty.

Most people tend to critique adults and Juveniles differently and similar depending on the subject that is being discussed. What happens when they commit a crime should they be treated equally or should one be given a break because they are less experienced. In a case on June 25, 2012 the subject, whether a juvenile should receive a life sentence arose in the Supreme court. This Conflict leads me to believe that Juveniles should receive the life sentence they truly deserve not based on their age or their status of their mentality, but it should be based on the damage that they caused. Some people give sympathy to the juveniles who were raised in tough neighborhoods and argue that some teenagers grew up with crime around them,

If Chicago can copy New York’s illegal handgun law which carries a three-year sentence for illegal possession of a handgun then it would actually scare some people away from illegally obtaining a handgun thus reducing the amount of murders that they person may have

Although the actions of the students of the Sayreville hazing incident suggests that they thought and acted as adults, this incident of their high school careers should not be used to ruin their future in colleges and life. As most of the students who were involved in the hazing were minors, they could be tried in a juvenile court and have their records closed. According to the New York Times ‘s article on the matter, it stated “A conviction in adult court results in a criminal record, and generally, longer prison terms” (DOYNE). If the students were tried as adults, they could be faced with longer prison sentences and have a criminal record. But whether they are tried as adults or juveniles, teenagers convicted of sex crimes are required to register as sex offenders for at least 15 years (Michon).
