I wonder. I was watching this documentary on a serial killer who, as a 15 year old, killed his grandparents because he “wanted to see what it was like to kill grandma” and then didn’t want his grandfather to be alone and murdered him. He was tried as a child and had his record expunged.
But a young black girl can be tried as an adult for killing her rapist.
I wonder what I would find if I looked up statistics of being tried as an adult and race. Given how often poc children are treated with inherently less empathy and seen as adults.
Zero plot twist.
I took a class on race, gender, and the criminal justice system and I can confirm
