Defense attorneys argued the teens shouldn't be tried on the charges because they never intended to hurt anybody. "Where's the intent?" said Kooiman's attorney, Karen Constantine. "I have seen none. I have heard none."

"Officer, when I shot that gun I didn't intend to hit anyone, so how can you charge me with murder?"

Ms. Constantine should be disbarred.

Someone from my church youth group was killed by one of these brick droppers a few years back. She left behind a husband and two kids. They never caught the b*stard. I'm sure if the culprit had been identified that Ms. Constantine would say "there was no intent to kill anyone, so where's the crime?".

We had a similar incident in East Tn where someone dropped a gravestone from an overpass killing a passenger in a vehicle. They were never caught either. Truly disgusting.
