You Freepers shouldn't too upset because the vet was an old man ... and the nice teen has completely reformed himself and still has his whole life ahead to contribute to society!

Indeed. I heard the killer was an aspiring rapper who fell into the wrong crowd and was planning on going to college and was turning his car around.
If he serves 2/3rds of his sentence, he'll only be 31 when he gets out or prison. Angry, institutionalized and unemployable. I'm sure we'll hear from Mr. Adams-Kinard again.
I heard that he turned his life around and will be accepted into Harvard Medical School upon his early release from prison.
This aspiring rapper who was just turning his life around should be hanged.
This is exactly why everyone should be packing. Especially the elderly.
I’ve said it before, and I’m sure I’ll say it again: Why does a murder conviction not automatically come with the death penalty or life without parole. I can’t understand how you can take a life and then someday get out of prison. Doesn’t make sense to me.
*sigh*
That's not just sarcasm anymore. I heard something much the same thing on a courtroom show a couple of years ago.
A thug teen had just been sentenced to many years in prison for killing an old man. The thug's mom was yelling that it was all so unfair. Her son was young, and the old man was, well, old. And she was yelling it to the victim's family.
I'd say it was animalistic behavior, but that would be insulting animals.
No hate crime here-—move along folks /S
“grief, forgiveness and redemption”
Am I the only one who gagged on this description.
Don’t they have a death penalty there?
Obola probably sent him a thank you letter for helping rid the world of a tax sucking veteran.
Yes. We are living in Bizarro world and this teen should have gotten life or the death penalty. Then charge his family for the bullet to the head.
He will only get out and kill others. I only hope those he kills are those just like him. Worthless breeder injectors.
Why isn't this creep identified as an "unarmed black teen"? Just wondering.
If I was a betting man, I would bet that he is back on the street doing what he does best before Christmas.
They should ship the little bastard to ISIS and burn him to death on TV for all to enjoy.....
The SCOTUS needs to review its prohibition against the death penalty for minors. While in many cases it is reasonable, in many others just because a vicious killer is 17 or even 16 does not mean that he cannot be seen for what he is, a rabid dog, and be dealt with accordingly.
And it is local juries that should decide this, not the accident of birth.
This being said, once again I want to reiterate how essential it is for states to have the alternative of a firing squad as a means of execution. It doesn’t mean they would routinely use it, just that they would have it on the books in case it was needed.
I work in the Juvenile system...these men, because of the severity of their crimes should be immediately turned over to the Adult system and tried as adults...
No justice.
I hope everyone reads the whole article.
I don’t know who sounds crazier — the perp, the perp’s family, the victim’s family, the judge? You decide.
