However, the statutory rape charge will be small potatoes considering he might face capital murder charges. IMHO though too many posters are willing to give this girl a pass, 14 is old enough to know right from wrong and she should have to face the music for the murders.
If she took part in the planning, I absolutely agree with you.
As for the kidnapping charge being dropped--deals are made all the time, and some charges get dropped. Statutory rape and kiddnapping might have been dropped in favor of going after the biggie--murder x2.
Agreed...if she's guilty (and I suspect she was at least somewhat involved.) However, the exact nature of her involvement is not known to us now...
For me, it's not about giving her a pass. If she was involved in the murder of her parents she should be tried as an adult and punished accordingly. That said, I really hope this isn't true. I'll admit that. It's almost unimaginable to think of a child doing something like this.
