I'm english, so this was all over the papers... 3 years ago when it happened.
I think that rehabilitation from crimes committed when you were younger is not only possible, but essential. People change, people grow. Should someone be in prison for life for something theyt did when they were ten, no matter how horrible that act was?
Maybe it's because I don't believe in the concept of evil, but I don't think anyone is beyond rehabilitation. We at least have to try.
