Re: underaged murder
A minor can be tried as an adult, but there are several safeguards in place that must occur before a transfer can take place. This is a complex issue and could vary from case to case and charge to charge.
I would advise you speak with an attorney about this if you have not already. Let me know if there are any other questions.
