The 2005 SCOTUS opinion in Roper v. Simmons, forbidding the death penalty for those 17 years old or younger was psychobabble BS spouted by Kennedy, Stevens, Souter, Ginsburg, and Breyer. Dissenting with reason and justice were Justices Scalia, Rehnquist, Thomas, and (surprisingly) O'Connor.

The 2012 SCOTUS opinion in Miller v. Alabama, forbidding life sentences without parole being given to those 17 years old or younger was more psycholbabble excrement, this time coming out of Kagan, Kennedy, Ginsburg, Breyer, and Sotomayor. Dissenting to such a radical judicial opinion were Roberts, Scalia, Thomas, and Alito.

The majority justices in both decisions claimed such sentences were "cruel and unusual punishment", prohibited by the 8th Amendment. Yet these justices saw no problem of cruel and unusual punishment in allowing innocent babies to be butchered to death in the womb.

It’s pure hypocrisy!

This poses an interesting situation: we know what prisoners do to “child killers” amongst their cell blocks, so would Karmelo me considered in that category among the inmates?

“They obviously have some brutal witness statements, describing the event and then regarding the kid choking on his own blood and bleeding out in his brothers arms.”

On X people are claiming a video exists which has not been made public and the speculation is that it is very bad for the little...murderer.

Karmelo Anthony’s supporters on X keep claiming it was self defense.

It was at a school event. I remember school: fights, pushing and shoving, cussing, bullies, shucking…DAILY. you know what I don’t remember happening? At ANY school event at any school in my area?

someone getting stabbed in their heart.
Twas murder most foul.

PS
Grok says knife murders at school are so rare it isnt sure if any happened last year, at all. Except this one.
