Hi Mac,

Oh, I agree.  I just think it's odd that this should come out only after
the murders. It almost sounds like a defense attorney asking leading
questions and the kid figuring out what the right answers are.

It DOES make a difference, IMO, that these kids are only 11 and 13 years
old.  I can't see throwing them into a prison with hard cases who are
adults.  But I don't think they should be turned back into society for a
long, long time.

Bill
