I find it depressing. Yeah I know they are young, but there are zero real consequences for their actions, the kids are probably laughing and boasting of their horrific acts thinking they are top shit. It’ll be a slap on the wrist, released on bail and free to go do some more pushing off piers, bashing, robbing, murdering. Our government has decided this is acceptable because it’s not happening in their own back yards, so there’s no plans for rehab programs, penalties, interventions etc. It’s awful.
