Quoting: nutmeg What's sad is that he'll probably be released to commit more crimes. They won't hold a 10 year old very long. I doubt if he can be rehabilitated. A 10 year old can for sure be rehabilitated . Didn't even hit puberty yet . He can be put on the right path if some other human out there has the time and patience to do it . |

They respond only to continuous rewards in a controlled environment. So you have to keep them in jail and reward then to comply with anything. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 82668994 United States 12/01/2022 10:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sociopath 10 year old. Quoting: Doctor Congo [link to www.washingtonexaminer.com (secure)] A 10-year-old boy is in a Wisconsin juvenile detention center on allegations he shot and killed his mother because he wanted a virtual reality headset. The boy admitted to police that he retrieved the gun from his mother's bedroom and shot her on accident on Nov. 21, according to the criminal complaint. His 26-year-old sister called the police and the next day more family members would alert officers that he didn't appear to show remorse and claimed to have shot her on purpose. They also discovered that the next day he used his mother's Amazon account to buy an Oculus Virtual Reality headset. His family also reported to police that he has a violent past that included hurting the family's pet dog and setting the furniture on fire with a balloon he filled with explosive liquid. While the gun he eventually retrieved was in a lockbox, family members confirmed that the boy had the keys to it. He didn't know that she had already bought him a headset during Black Friday sales and was planning to surprise him at the Winter Solstice gift event,... |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84715532 The question is who will be his next victim(s)? He will be out at 18 years old with his arrest record expunged. Until then, he will get an education and graduate from HS with State supervision. yeah, basically the same life he wouldve had outside of prison, but probably better nutrition, not bad really. |

User ID: 78718530 United States 12/02/2022 12:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When "Bubba" sticks some "reality" up his butt it won't be virtual. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 44534076 Fantasies of karmatic comeuppance via sodomized inmates tells a big big story about your feminine side bubba. What he did was wrong, stupid, evil, and completely devoid of empathy indicating necessary incarceration. However, seeing how his brain at age ten being unintroduced to ideas that transcend the environment he was bred into and has not developed the morals and wisdom and cunning to engage artfully the chaos of his upbringing, I bet he'll be out at 16 or less. You live in a world of children raised by wolves, and when they unsurprisingly follow their baser instincts, you have your justification for all sorts of evil penalties. You who have not sinned cast the first stone. What? He’s a psychopath. They aren’t made that way, they are born. You can do zero about it. The kid is fucked in the head. He’ll probably be locked away in a mental institution for the rest of his life. Michael_Knight |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 72112067 United States 12/02/2022 12:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This doesn’t make him a psycho, I don’t know the whole story but if he’s already been exposed to violent video games and scenarios from a young age then he may have become desensitised to it, to many ppl play violent games with no consequence and a reset button, perhaps he believed she would regenerate and had a blurred view between reality and virtual reality? I know my 10yr old wouldn’t even know what an oculus rift is. Certain games are 18+ for a reason, the mind hasn’t developed enough to handle that type of thing and VR should not be played by children. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84010143 So basically you are saying he became a sociopath through use of tech A sociopath is functionally the same as psychopathy No empathy leading to abusive evil behavior |
