A life sentence 11-year-old
It Jordan Brown - he became the youngest prisoner, received a life sentence without parole.
Jordan hails from Pennsylvania, United States, and when he was 11, he shot his father's pregnant fiancee, who was pregnant and was about to give birth, the child could not be saved.
According to the prosecution, Jordan Brown, who is now 13, killed 26-year-old Kenzie Houk, as she slept at his home in Lawrence, near Pittsburgh, in February 2009. Houk was pregnant almost full-term baby. The investigation indicted for life 2m points.
Brown's lawyers argued that the court considered the case too hard. Jordan is considered as an adult.
The laws of the State of Pennsylvania in such cases are very severe and have the full right to judge the child as an adult.
The proof of the charges was built on confessions Jordan. To the surprise of all the details of the murder of Jordan he said without hesitation. Lawyers are trying to insist that it was self-incrimination, and at the end of the meeting, Jordan renounced these confessions. But the court had enough evidence and facts to recognize Man guilty.
Family Hoek its part can not believe such a cold-blooded behavior. They oppose the growing movement to protect the rights of Jordan. Since they fully agree with the court decision and they believe that Jordan did it consciously.
The US is one of only two countries in the world that refused to ratify the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child! Consequently, the Court issued a legal decision.
For reference. In Pennsylvania, a life sentence has already received 450 minors !!!
