It is interesting what you said about him possibly not caring about his own freedom. And I have to agree.Yes, initially he was in a juvenile detention center but now he's in an adult prison, separated from adults. If he is convicted, the sentence is 25 years to life.
If he receives a life sentence, he will be eligible for re-evaluation at age 25. I don't know about an evaluation at age 18. I think that was only if he was tried in juvenile court. He will automatically be housed with other adults when he turns 18.
It will be interesting to see what Aiden's defense will be. I'm sure they will ask for psychological evaluations and therapy. Personality Disorders are hard to treat, if he does have ASPD or something similar. Especially in prison. That's why I don't think he will be much different when he's re-evaluated. If anything, he will regress and his symptoms will be more prominent after being in prison for ten years. He will basically grow up in a prison cell with no positive role models.
I think you're right, though, that he may not even care about his own freedom. He probably won't care much for therapy and medication, either. Imo
He did so many things which could point to that.
--Telling friends that he planned to commit a murder that month.
--Killing TB, even though he knew that all his friends knew , that he was hanging out with her that night.
--They were seen by others walking out of a party together. He knew that...
--He left a bag of his bloody clothing in his room
--When sitting in the squad car, about to be interrogated for murder, he is smirking, joking around, posting selfies on social media, and using TB's name in his joking banter
--He told him Mom incriminating things within the first hours---making it hard for her to defend him
So it seems like he was not that concerned about being caught and locked up. I don't get it. I don't think he is a dumb person. He just DGAF I guess?
