I've had all kinds of anger over this. I live in Houston so I've known about it for a while. The point is, the kid fucked up. No matter if he was a good boy. He killed people. It was an accident, but he killed people. He needs to have some consequences for his actions. What about kids who steal, but they're so poor they have no choice but to steal because there's no money or work in this economy. Do they get off because they're too poor to see its wrong and not just survival? My point is, if this was a kid from a shitty neighborhood with a shitty family life, his ass would be in jail right now with no question of did he know better or not.
