I think this is a case it should be look into. For what comments says, The father and the boy had a good relationship and some are starting to say things don't add up and they don't believe it. Is so easy to put the blame on childrens. Is really disturbing to see how many childrens are being blamed for such serious crimes. And once you are accussed forget about getting a fair trail with all the publicity surronds these cases.

Still is not known if he will be tried as an adult.

If indeed innocent many different senerios come to mind to assemble all I know about falsely-accused kids. It is much similar to adults who are falsely accused, but with subtile differences like biased reported with hardly any opposing viewpoint for fear of started a comment-section flame war.

Whoa! Gloria I think I got another reason kids like Jordan do not get fair-and-balanced coverage. My guess is that newspapers like in New Castle do not fairly cover juvenile for fear of a flame war by those who think with half-a-brain cell that Jordan did it and those who believe in his innocence. For example, I seen this on topix and at the Youngstown Vindicator (who in my mind has had the best coverage of the case compared to the three culprits behind that suit). This fear could prevent them from coming to terms with our side. Otherwise, they are all on the guilty as hell bandwagon and do not want us to give them any blowback.

Back to this case. It could come down to many senerios.

1. Home Invasion
2. Disponent spouse or relative.
3. other kid in or outside the family.
4. suicide confused with murder
5. family friend turned evil
6. rogue cop or relation of cop

The mind boggleth!

The prosecutor is Ian Service. I already sent him an email and let him know that I'm watching him. I explained what we've been doing for kids like Jordan and Cristian and that we hope he uses some common sense and tries this kid as a juvenile.

However, if he doesn't........

Remember this is Idaho. As far as I know, many of our recent cases involving juveniles that young (13 and under) involve rural areas that have a inept coroner's office and equally clueless police, many of whom may never had had investigated a murder in their careers. Maybe if they had it was not kids that young. These people tend to overreact, using their own state laws to the extreme, largely thinking of themselves psycholgically than the victims or the alleged killer.

Christian Fernandez has maybe an exception. Fernandez is the example of the second law of trying juveniles as adults: race or ethnic origin. It is not shocking to know that no matter if it is city, suburbs or countryside, racism exists in subtile ways. One of those is the disproportionate number of minority children tried as adults in the USA. This is not a Southern problem. It is also a nationwide problem.

good, let's hope this case is handled correctely, he should be tried as a juvenile and I hope so. Glad you are going to have a look at it. Is getting really disturbing seeing how many children are being tried as adults.

Idaho prosecutor wants to move 12-year-old charged in dad's shooting death to adult court

See. The Idaho prosecutor proves my point. He is nothing more than a patsy for the buttwipes who write these damn laws. Sight unseen, Idaho just joined "I swallowed a life wontonly club" where the qualifications involve throwing into adult prison any juvenile as they damn well please. It is all because, the old phase, "I cannot trust you ever again since you allegedly committed a crime. I am not going to take any chance." Ask me, what is the % of juveniles convicted of murder under 16 who go on to commit another capital crime as an adult? The answer to the pro-adult crowd is "I do not care" because they do not want to take that chance. I say to them to take a chance.

If I were that San Francisco kid who plays the trumpet and dances like Fred Astaire, I would be playing the blues upon hearing of another kid who is down on his luck. The kid in Idaho is about the same age. At least he can does not have to worry about overzealous prosecutors with no clear sense of compassion to at least give that one little boy who maybe bumped off their abusive dad one more chance instead of ruining their lives.
