So much for rehabilitation. When he got out of the youth detention facility, the State paid for an apartment for him and agreed to pay for college.

Disappointed? People should be enraged at the system for putting the time and money into this born loser! Why not put the effort into the youth that shows promise?

[Enraged]

He should be sent to prison and forgotten about this time

My sone was convicted of a B & E at 14 and spent the next 4 years in the same facility where Abraham spent his time. He has bee out for 4 years and still has not been able to get a job because of his felony. The state did not offer him an appartment, a job, or an education. Where is the fairness here? I guess my son's case just wasn't high-profile enough to warrant that special treatment. Meanwhile, he struggles and the system and society are failing him, even though he has applied for hundreds of jobs. The best he's been able to acquire so far is a very part-time fast-food position. He has completely reformed and has surrounded himself with a better quality circle of friends, and completely avoided the old ones. He continues to keep trying, but grows increasingly more frustrated...understandably so. Way to go Nate for blowing what was a grossly unfair advantage and opportunity. Pray for my son!
