I know that one of the girls was 14. And she turned herself in, she also didn't pull the trigger.

poor judgment is a kid thing.
She shouldn't go to prison for hanging out with the wrong crowd.
However shooting a women dead, isn't. That guy should go to prison. I think he was 18. But even if he was 14 I'd say the same thing.

There are consequences to choices. She should go to prison as an accomplice to a crime or at least get some sort of punishment.

From what I've read, the police were very specific about who they charged in that murder. They arrested seven people, of whom five were charged in the murder.

I believe the 14 year-old was charged as an accomplice because she helped the gunman hide the murder weapon.

I don't give a sh!t if she'd 14, either -- let her rot in prison. In fact, I can't think of a better deterrent to crime in New York City than to allow her out of prison once a year -- fully shackled and in her prison uniform -- to give speeches to high school students just so they can see what the consequences of criminal actions could be.

If she would agree to do that, then I would agree to reduce her sentence, from 25-to-life . . . to 25 years.
