I think the decision on whether to try someone as an adult should be on a case to case basis but that's probably unrealistic.

Putting someone away at 12 and letting them out at 21 is like breeding a criminal, last time I checked the government was against non-whitecollar crimes. Do judges get paid on commission or something?
i totally agree, I can't imagine what the families are going through. His father is quite naive to think his son would never lie. I just think that he can't possibly think his son would do something like that. Most likely was jealous of his father's girlfriend, sounds like a arguable motive (but then again a motive isn't required to prove guilt).
