“...the boy was released from custody.”

Of course he was released from custody. He’s a 10-year-old juvenile. Chances are that if he had shot her between the eyes, he’d be released. That’s how juvenile laws work. Each state’s laws are different in this regard but there is an age, below which, a kid is untouchable by the law.

“But just as Teddy was stooping, something flinched a little in the dust, and a tiny voice said: “Be careful. I am death!” It was Karait, the dusty brown snakeling that lies for choice on the dusty earth; and his bite is as dangerous as the cobra’s. But he is so small that nobody thinks of him, and so he does the more harm to people.”

“Rikki-Tikki-Tavi,” Rudyard Kipling

The Junior SCORPION Unit of the Memphis Police Department are on the case.

“Nuke Memphis from outer space and be done with this problem.”

I remember Memphis back in the 60s. They were rioting back then.

I remember when they used to put problem children on fenced and guarded farms where they learned to work and be nice, and got an education.

In the good ol’ days it was just the Teenz that were the trouble makers. Our headlines will now be “Toddlers Rob Quickee Mart”. Toddlers, the new Teens

He’ll be in prison for life or dead by the time he’s 25.

Children can actually go, and carjack people and you release them immediately?.
It primarily depends on the statute surrounding the offense.

Let me get the phone yes Mr. Soros

Someone is skirting the law
You can make somebody obey beat them or pay the.

Probably need to change the law so that, until the child reaches the age of accountability (however the state defines it), the parents/guardians are responsible to pay the fine and do the time.

Might create more enthusiasm for them to supervise and control what their kids were doing.

It took a very short period of time before they realized they are untouchable as far as the law is concerned.
Among malicious agents in their lives, their schools have taught them that there's no consequence to bad behavior.

Can you imagine the outcry if a car jacking victim shot one of these little f***ers?

Calls of self defense would fall on deaf ears.

The youngest suspect was 10

I'm sure his mama told him, "You just wait until your father gets home!"

Just about 51% of the population is all.

The parents of these kids need to be charged as accessories to their children’s felonies, or a least with gross child neglect.
