I'll never understand trying juveniles as adults. Then what is the point of even having juvenile courts? There is a 13 year oldkid in Florida who killed his mother and is being tried as an adult. I understand it was a terrible crime but treating a middle school kid with the brain/reasoning ability of a 13 year old child as an adult is wrong.
