It's so sad and tragic that it happened, but it appears that the girl woke up a sleeping monster when she threw the rock at him.
In reallity, she's the one who sent him to prison because the judge had went on her recommendation that the boy be locked up for what seems like the rest of his life!!
That's why I feel thast he didn't get a fair trial.   |
Nothing in law required the judge to follow the girl's recommendation. It was the judge that did it.
Anyways, how could anybody reasonably expect to be violently brutalized and traumatized like this over a minor provocation? That's a completely insane response and, frankly, I don't think it's right to qualify the statement that it's sad and tragic with "but she woke up a sleeping monster." No, it's sad and tragic. There are no buts there. Maybe ands.
