This is what's wrong with our justice system. If he was out on the streets to commit another heinous crime, it's a failure of our system to protect its citizens. When will we learn to prioritize public safety over coddling criminals?

We need to stop making excuses for these monsters and start holding them accountable. The blood of that 14-year-old is on the hands of the system that failed to keep him behind bars. It's time for change, and it's time for accountability.

We can't keep letting violent criminals roam free to wreak havoc on our communities. It's time to take a stand and demand a justice system that puts the safety of its citizens above all else.
