24 - Children Who Murder
There's only one thing worse than a murderer. . . a child (murderer)! Is there specific psychology explaining why some kids commit the ultimate crime? Are they born evil? Or are they an unfortunate result of their environment mixed with bad timing or opportunity? This week we explore the horrors committed by some children and some of the horrors committed against the children by the current justice system.
