Crazy as it seems, in Iowa you can get your permit at 14, even a special permit that lets you drive to school and school related functions at that age *without* a responsible adult with you.
I think in the case of your friend's killer...it isn't the 14...it is the *stolen* part that makes is so awful.....he was already not a good person....

Yeah, I learned in driver's ed that the same is true in Cali. If you need to drive to school and don't have a guardian to take you or you don't have any means to get there otherwise.
I was thinking the same thing. I know the kid was probably scared out of his wits, but come on, run away? He should've called for help, your friend's life was more important than being scared. Better yet, he should've just stayed at home that night. Well, thinking about what should've been done won't help, but I will say that I pray for all of you to be comforted somehow. No one should have to endure a tragedy like this, NO ONE AT ALL. If you ever need to vent again, we'll all be here.
