Perhaps it's just me but I really don't understand the repeated references to understanding the teen brain. The fact is--regardless of the age or development of the subject's brain, he's been charged with the offense of murder and perverting the course of justice in the Crown Court.
Unlike AW and JC that have given evidence that they medicate for various alleged medical conditions, we really know nothing about the teen.
Perhaps his biological mother lived with psychopathy and the court permanently removed him from her care because she refused to treat her disease. Perhaps the teen carries the same genetic variant. We don't know!
Whatever the circumstances, all we know for certain is that a vulnerable little boy perished in the most horrific way while exposed to three violent individuals ranging in age 14 - 39.
And if the Court did not believe all three defendants were mentally competent, they would not be in Court today.
