What a horrible story! The article states:
No arrest warrant is to be issued for the suspect, Minger said. The suspect will be appointed an attorney and will be subject to a bench trial, in front of a judge, he said.
Under Illinois law, a suspect younger than 10 cannot be detained. And a minor is not given a public jury trial and not entitled to one — unless the minor is charged as an adult.
I saw a video interview with his mother also and she says she forgives him and loves him, no matter what. I would too, as a mother, but I would be afraid to live with him. I cannot believe he's not been detained in some sort of juvenile facility!
