Florida honors student, 13, 'confesses' to killing his mom
Florida teenager Derek Rosa, 13, was heard in a recording telling a detective he 'killed' his mom Irina Garcia, 39, on October 12, after she was found with over 40 knife wounds.
Red bolding mine.
While I agree DR shouldn't be free on bail ... I wish the judge wouldn't refer to him as a child.
DR's not 5 years old.
Even if he was 12 or even 10 -- I would not want him living under my roof.
I couldn't close my eyes at night !
Maybe DR's been attacking other inmates or guards when he is allowed out for showering or whatever ?
The people who want leniency (family, defense lawyers, etc.) in any juvie case are usually not the ones who have to house and support them.
Just pointing that out.
Or perhaps if DR receives a light sentence, his family member do want to take him in ?
In that case, be my guest and let us know how it all works out.
I'd still be fearful.
Stabbing is very up close and personal !!
That poor mother, Irina, must have woken up in a split second of searing pain and horror.
Add to that she may have been conscious long enough to know who was doing this to her.
Omo.
