Features of American justice
12-year-old Paul Dzhingerich was sentenced to 25 (!!!) years in prison for the murder of his friend's stepfather. He was tried as an adult, and the release of the freedom he can speak only in 37 years. Of course, it is a shocking crime, despite his young age, but whether it is possible to impose a 12-year-old boy to such a punishment?
In the US state of Indiana as possible. Children are tried in adult courts (aggravated), since 10 years. Paul wanted to run away with her boyfriend out of the house, but one of them (a boy of 15 years) complained that his stepfather had never let go. Then they decided to scare him, after procuring a gun. But it was over the shooting and killing.
And the child was lucky - with a certain scenario, he could go to prison for 65 years to hope to come out in 77 years. The next three years, Paul still will sit in a special prison for teens, after which it is transferred into the adult area. Parents do not justify the act of Paul and believe that it should be held accountable. But they strongly disagree with the fact that the child should be put behind bars for such a fabulous time.
