Juvenile Hall ... what a joke. Try adult jail. If this idiot was adult enough to shoot at a crowd with children around he's adult enough to be in an adult court. Too much violence in society but I won't get into that. what a waste of two lives. People control your kids. Teenagers need to be monitored but unfortunately most people don't think that way.

this is so sad. kids killing kids. two families destroyed
