Recently you watched a video in which an 8 year old girl killed an elderly woman.  At 8 years old does she as an eight year old have the capacity to understand her actions?  Should this child go to trial?  If so and she is found guilty what should her punishment be?...or should she be punished?  What about giving her mental health counseling?  She is too young to be tried as an adult so the longest she could be incarcerated would be through the age of 21.  Would she come out rehabilitated or worse for wear?  Finally, please post what you do as a judge in the case.  You as a judge have to decide if you would send her to trial if not you still have to recommend what you believe this girl should receive in response to this crime.
