15-year-old John Silva was convicted for first-degree homicide for the crime of detaining playmates with ballistic dressing, and the wire died suffocating because the wire was very tight. Today he was sentenced to life imprisonment. If he is an adult, he may have faced the death penalty.

In another case, a teenager named Willie Bisket was prosecuted for hundreds of street crimes and punished by juvenile sanctions. After all, he was accused of murdering two men on the subway. It is said that Bisket died for fun. If Bisket was originally tried as an adult, will the murder be prevented? This incident occurred in 1977, "I began to allow young people to be considered adults" (Gest). Teenagers need to be severely stopped and punished so that they do not want to break the law.

In December 1992, 15-year-old Jacob Ind was sentenced to life imprisonment for murdering her mother and stepfather. Nathan Ybanez (photo) and Erik Jensen encountered a similar fate in a wealthy suburban high school student in Denver. Nathan killed her mother and another friend who took part in the concealment incident engaged Eric with criminal acts.

When he and two acquaintance tried to hijack a car, Andrew Medina was fifteen, during which time the gun was fired and the driver was killed. In 2006, Colorado became the first to pass a bill to change the unanalyzed teenage life to parole for the first 40 years. However, this bill is not retroactive and is currently too late for 45 former teenagers including Jacob, Eric, Nathan, Trevor, Andy.
