Another thing I always wondered...with these types of cases...what would be fair if the person is convicted of such crime they committed during their adolescence--should they be sentenced as a minor, or as an adult.
For instance, if someone...let's just say...raped and beat someone(Let's forget about statute of limitations for a second)...when they were 14...and they were never brought to trial until they were like 40. IF convicted...should they be given the maximum sentence that the law would impose on a 14-year old...or sentence him as an adult?
