It is likely that if LaKeith had been tried as a juvenile and/or tried appropriately for the burglary, he would be free today.

Are we assuming this is a good thing. He broke into a home with a gunman ready to murder the occupant. What sort of man is he now?

This alone is absolutely insane to me. Where I am from, if you're under 18 there is no option to be tried as an adult, even 20 year olds can be tried as an adolescent here.

How is Chauvin recovering from his 20 something stab wounds? Too bad the dude didn't finish the job.
