Teens Tried as Adults?
I can't find the link to the stories so I'll make it brief.
In Anaheim, California, a 14 year old male was arrested for the brutal kidnapping, assault, and rape of at least 4 victims. He is to be tried as an adult if the D.A. gets his way.
In another case, 4 Caucasian teenage males were arrested for severely beating and attacking a African-American male. They are being charged with assault and a hate crime b/c of the racial slurs they were heard screaming by witnesses.
What do you guys think? Should teens be tried as adults for the crimes they commit?
I think they should depending on the severity of the crime. Rape, murder, assault, etc. are definitely crimes that should be tried in adult court.
