I'm sorry but I don't understand what his race has to do with it. He's a murderer regardless of his or her race. Murderer! He murdered her. Period.
Some people see everything in black & white. Others of us don't.
June 19: Police says mother reported daughter missing, found dog tied up in the park.
June 20: Source1 witnessed a digital message about a drug transaction between KC and a black male. Source1 believed KC was supposed to meet Suspect in the pool area...
 
[Source1 has no mention of his involvement.]
 
June 21: Body found. Dumpster location identified. Dumpster was picked up on this date.
June 22: Body confirmed KC.
June 23: Source1 was smoking marijuana with KC in her apartment. KC received a digital message to meet with Suspect about buying and selling marijuana. Source1 followed behind her with her dog. Source was stated he followed KC because he was curious and concerned for her safety (because Suspect1 was aggressive towards women). KC runs away, they go back after an hour and KC leave her dog with him while she goes to meet Suspect. Source1 plays 30-minutes basketball, leaves the dog tied, goes back to apartment, messages KC, then comes back to park to find mother with the dog.
 
[Source1 has no mention of his involvement.]
 
July 18: ME confirms it is KC's blood on bathtub, door and patio railing.
 
July 28: Detectives visit Source1 again. Source1 says they were going to get Marijuana for free. Then make dabs and give it back to Suspect.
 
[Source1 only now mentions his involvement.]
 
 
We don't see it black and white. We see it the way it was stated on facts without trying to put "Poor kid, he felt guilty, he has conscience" angle that you implied.
 
Source1 is a drug dealear/drug pusher and up until the last moment, he was trying to cover his back. Even at the end, he put it all on KC.
 
Had he not done that and been truthful at the start, perhaps they could have located her body before it ended up in the landfill.
I find this just unbelievable. I don't care if drugs were involved or not. What was the point of killing a 14 year old girl with a hammer?
To me, the reason she went there was for drugs, whether she knew it or not, or source1 told her that, or used that as a lure to get her there, I don't think the murderer was going to sell her drugs, I think that he was sexually interested in 14 year old girls, she resisted s
I had forgot about the bathtub. He could've placed her body in there obviously but its also possible this is where the initial attack happened. For those that don't know, some drug deals take place in the bathroom...especially if there's anyone else in the apartment/house. Add a sexual component to this deal, he might have wanted her in the bathroom for that as well.
They also cannot be sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.
"The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June 2012 that juveniles convicted of murder cannot be subject to a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of parole."
This is also retroactive for juveniles previously given life sentences. (There are states that aren't complying though.) There are about 2000 people behind bars now in this situation.

I just wanted to add on to your well written post with the following:
From the affidavit: It clearly says "Source 1 was at Kaytlynn's apartment smoking marijuana."
Nowhere does it say SHE was smoking. Maybe it is implied by source 1, but there is no tox report to state this as fact. Maybe she was, but that is NOT what it says in the affidavit.
ETA: Source 1 needed to tell ALL the story, right away, if he wanted a clear conscience. I couldn't fall asleep knowing KC was missing. Especially when I KNEW where she was last going. That would tear at most of us, I would surmise.
"During the interview Investigator Hicks learned that on the date of her disapperance Source 1 was at Kaythlynn's apartment smoking marijuana."
"a friend said she saw Kaytlynn tie her dog's leash to a fence and asked friends to watch the dog but never returned."
1st TIME: "When Kaytlynn left her apartment to meet wiht XXXX, Source 1 followed behind her with her dog."
2nd TIME: "Approximately one hour later Kaytlynn and Source 1 walked to the dog park area ... When they arrived, Kaytlynn left the dog with Source 1 and she walked west" "...Source 1 tied the dog up in the dog park "

I wonder if "she" here is the Source1. KC did not tie her dog to the fence. Source1 was spinning it?
From the affidavit:
I started to like this Source1 less and less.
Also any idea why mother so quickly went out after her 30-mins after she left? And called police so so fast? Initial police reports said family believe she went to a friend.
Obviously DRUGS are what got her killed so yes its a big deal IMO.
Everything and every one in this shares blame unfortunately a young girl lost her life.
Very dangerous situation.
A very dangerous business.
