Youth and crime: Can a juvenile grasp the weight of taking a life and the consequences that follow?

It may happen in a matter of seconds when a teen chooses to commit a violent act.

Police send them to Juvenile Detention Center or the Marion County Jail.

This is the new reality of a 15yearold boy in Marion County accused of committing a homicide inside a home on West 27th Street Sunday night.

Fourteenyearold Emmanuel Stone and 18yearold Sean Cox died in the shooting. A third victim survived.
