Juveniles are on ave more impulsive, more likely to take risks, Kinscherff confirms.
This ^^^^ really bothers me. Sure, juveniles make poor choices, and take risks--maybe they smoke pot and drive too fast, maybe steal Mom's car for a joyride---but raping and killing a teacher? That is not a 'risky choice.' That is known by any teen to be dead wrong.
