American Justice

One of the shooters in the 1998 Jonesboro, Ark school shootings is being released from prison because he is 21 today. He will have no criminal record because he was a minor when the killings occurred. If the Feds hadn't used weapons charges against him he would have been released 3 years ago. His partner in the shootings has two years to go. The pair killed four students and one teacher.

This is justice?

It's easy to understand why laws were passed to protect the future of those making poor judgments as minors. Yet it is detrimental to society to allow these laws to cover such horrendous crimes.
