Just watched a programme about kids in jail.
This lad and his pals decided to break in to a house.
The home owner woke up and shot one of them dead and the lad in the programme got shot in the leg.
The house owner was justified as he was protecting his property and family.
However the state of Indiana said someone has to be responsible for the murder commited by the home owner,on their friend.They were charged with Murder and received 55 years to life.
The Prosecution case was that in breaking in to the house and their friend being shot dead,they were responsible.
Now I'm not saying they were right breaking and entering or Burgalry.But to charge them with Murder and give them 55 years.
That's not justice,that's why we have the symbol of the lady holding the scales of justice let the punishment fit the Crime.
I was taken aback USA is one crazy place.Very Sad.
