But after he got the 2X4 he went from being a bad kid who didn't know his own strength to an evil kid who meant to do serious harm.

I agree. At this point, he thinks about how he can inflict more harm. He developed a plan.

Found this stat.

According to FBI reports, 2,900 juveniles were arrested for murder in 1996. Sixty-one percent of those arrested for murder were not White. Although Black children make up only 15 percent of America's youth population, 46 percent of juveniles in correctional facilities are Black, according to a study by the U.S. Justice Department's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention.

The new twist to this story is that murder is being committed by children whose feet can't touch the courtroom floor, who can't get into a PG-13 movie without an adult and who cant comprehend why, in many cases, they can't go home with their mommy after murdering someone else's child.

It doesn't say if the victims were other children, though.

My daughter and I was talking about that, she is seventeen. She said the same thing when he stopped to get the 2x4, that alone shows him to be thinking, before acting, therefore he knew what he was doing....and continued on to complete what he started.


Just a thought, my husbands ex-wife talks him and me down to his children, saying how she despises us both, I never did a thing to her. It was she who left him for the man she is with now. Any way when the boy hears her he reacts to it. He comes here and clearly dis-likes (no hates) me, also...I am curious (not saying it is true) how many times in cases like these the parent without realizing it causes this to happen because they say horrible things to the kid to make the kids feel as they do...awful.
