As a Deputy Sheriff, I used to read felons their right to have an attorney provided by the court, free of charge. And this kid gets less than that? BTW, as a matter of law, under age 7 a child cannot commit a crime. They are deemed to not understand the difference between right and wrong.

I wrote a story about a soldier who was first on the scene of an accident and put a tourniquet on a man who had an amputation. It got him an ARCOM.

Politics is the art of the possible. They did as much as they had the votes for. Some of them wanted to do more, some of them wanted to do less. There were compromises made. Nobody was completely satisfied.
