NO you don't know anything, on a first offense he would have recieved a light sentence not the full 22 years. Go listen to some qualfied attorney's. That is the irony of trying him as a juvenile, his probation comes into play and they will lock him up for longer than he would have served otherwise on the reduced charge.

If you read the articles concerning the incident you will see that the black kids were taunted by the white kid and that resulted in the beating.

It was equal taunting and taunting dose not justify an assault., especially a premeditated gang assault where the victim once knocked unconcious and on the ground is given more blows, lethal blows.

It does matter who kicked him in the head if you are going to charge Bell as and adult and not the other 5 students.

It doesn't matter who kicked or how many times, they were all a part of the assault. If you are involved in an armed robbery it doesn't matter who carried the gun, if someone is killed it doesn't matter who pulled the trigger.

Bell's charge was excessive. Any smart person knows that.

No it wasn't and your claiming "smart people know that" is laughable.

Read the article posted. Those other cases were settle. One was a breaking and entering in which no charges were given. If you don't know the facts, then you have no right to an opinion.
