WHAT DO YOU THINK/ SHOULD CHILDREN UNDER 18 WHO COMMIT SERIOUS CRIMES BE TRIED AS ADULTS?

"Well, I think they should be tried as a child and be in juvenile until they're 18 and then be tried as an adult." Courtney Oliver, 12 Craig Middle School Indianapolis

"I don't think so because they're still impressionable as children. They're still growing and they haven't learned all about humanity." Chris Oulcada, 16 North Central High School Indianapolis

"I think that if you're adult enough to make the crime you should be adult enough to pay the consequences." Kim McMurray, 14 Washington High School Indianapolis

"Yes, because if you're the same as an adult then there is no reason/need for you to be treated as a kid." Masimba Rusununguko, 12 Keystone Middle School Indianapolis
