Especially since he was 15 at the time of shooting and was literally incapable of getting mental health treatment (if your parents dgaf it’s basically impossible)
Sure, but then we’re talking about him as a victim still. So why is he spending his entire life in prison? Some are cheering the Gypsy Rose Blanchard release, but saying this kid is a murderer who deserves to live behind bars
He is spending his entire life in prison because the US justice system is based around deterrence and retaliation, not prevention and rehabilitation.
In most civilised countries it is impossible for underage offenders to get life. Forinstance in Germany the maximum prison sentence for a minor is ten years. Also youth prisons are focused much more on rehabilitation, social work and education, so the children have a chance at life after their sentence.
That guy is a murderer and his father is an accessory to murder. Where’s the doubt?
The child asked for help and was neglected. Had he not committed a crime, wouldn’t we be calling him a victim?
Are we actually arguing that he’s not guilty because he was neglected?

He can still be a victim of bad parenting.
