Topic	A 15yo girl got sentenced for Life in helping set up a murder in Florida.

Ringleader got death, the rest of them got life aside from the step dad (Who had mental issues so he couldn't be held legally responsible) and the owner of the house who originally got life, but then lawyered up hard with Jose Baez (AKA Casey Anthony's lawyer) so she got released after 10 years. I mean, if a good lawyer was able to get the owner of the house off surely there was some merit to the sentences being excessively harsh. Apparently sentencing minors to life imprisonment was actually ruled unconstitutional after this but the floridian judge still doubled down on it. I just think they wouldn't have gotten life in any blue state or any other developed country (hell, Japan is pretty well known for being harsh on criminals and even they have policies that are more lenient on minors). I'd love to be proven wrong with examples. The Sylvia Likens case had all the minors only getting several years for it. --- Make love, not war- too many people have forgotten this <cite>StarSpangled posted [p:973207136] in A 15yo gir...
