10-year-old's mother says she's "pissed off" [boy shot himself while attempting robbery]

The mother of the 10-year-old reportedly shot by a gun he was carrying during a fight on a bus says she's "pissed off."

Charges could be filed as early as today, against the boy and his 12 and 14-year-old half brothers, who are accused of trying to rob a 17-year-old on a Metro Bus this week.

The 4-foot-1 inch tall, chubby cheeked boy sat in King County juvenile court, nursing his wounded arm on Wednesday.

Prosecutors say the 10-year-old boy is dangerous.

The gun went off during the robbery attempt, wounding the 10-year-old.

"I'm pissed off right now," said the boys mother in court. "You just don't know how mad I am. These people are railroading my kids."

The mother became so agitated, Judge Julia Garratt told her to settle down. "I'm sorry, I know you're upset-"

"I'm VERY upset!" said the mother.

"This is a court process," Garratt said.

"OK I'll be quiet. I'm upset, though, as a parent" the mother said.

The boys were ordered to be held. Police say the 10-year-old is suspect in 13 crimes, 7 of them felonies.

He has not been charged. Under Washington State law, children aged 9 to 11 are presumed "incapable" of committing a crime, so a hearing will have to be held to determine if the boy understood what he did was wrong.

"I'm sorry - I know you're upset"?

How about shut up or you'll be charged with contempt of court?

I bet they’re on welfare too (and not the first generation to be so).

She’s “pissed off” at the system? WHAT? I was opening the article expecting her to be mad at her kid, because that’s who I would be “pissed off” at in an article if it was my kid!! Of course, that is why people like that have kids who do stuff like that, because they don’t hold their children responsible for their actions. My kids would be more scared of me (and their father and their grandfather) than they would be of the police, even.

If nothing else, she’s guilty of being a terrible mother.

Its funny "mom" doesn't seem to be the least bit apologetic about unleashing these little animals of her's upon the rest of us.

She's been programmed for outrage only.

In the article they refer to the older yoots as “half brothers”, so we know there be at least two “daddies”.

So, her kids were robbing someone and one of the perps was shot, the youngest, with his own gun and she is mad at the system?

What a mother, gotta love 'em when they stick up for their vicious brood robbing the looting other people./SAR

This kid is a suspect in 13 more incidents which include 7 felonies and this whack job mom says the justice system is railroading her kids?

Is it just me, or are the kids actually railroading their victims? Once again, their belief is that it is someone else's fault and they should not have to pay consequences.

The mother and children are the victims. These people take take and take just like illegals.

"Sounds like the “Mom’ needs to be locked up, too. "

But it's the weekend.

That's probably when she earns best.

Maybe Obama can invite the judge and the momma to the White House for a beer.
