In California, I would be in jail ad three perps would be worm food.
you can't blame the kid for not aiming at the center of mass as you or I would have done. But I forsee the criminals coming back for a bit of revenge. When they're dead, the only thing that happens is that you see their mommas telling everyone on the news that their wonderful chillun didn't deserve to die, and that the homeowner overreacted, etc. But the fact remains, the recidivism rate among dead robbers is very low.
