The victim's parents forgave the 16 year old boy

The victim parent's heart is very big. I can't. If the boy and his family used mental problem as an excuse, I will go mental and kill them all too. Then I will accept that whatever the judge given for the boy's charge as fair enough for mine. I can accept death too as I can't imagine life without my son.

@@juwanwan1 apologies won’t bring back their 13 years old child. Imagine making breakfast for them only to know your child got killed by a crazy boy. You think it’s fair? The family should sue the school and the crazy boy family millions of dollars

@@DeeDixon24 Testimony shared by a staff over River Valley High tragedy: I just want to share what my principal shared with us during the staff meeting earlier. It was a particularly tough day for her because she was about to make her way to the wake of the 13-year-old boy who died under her charge. She expected that his parents would be particularly hostile. After all, their son died in the care of the school that she is leading. When she reached the wake, the mother was unusually calm and the father, after crying for a while, ministered to her. The family that she came to comfort was the very one that was comforting her. She testified of how the family lived out the Christian values that they believed in. How the parents said that they were not angry at the 16-year-old boy who took their son’s life. And they asked my principal to convey to the 16-year-old boy’s parents that they should take care of themselves. My principal is not a believer, but she also recounted publicly (this is out of her character to do this because she always maintained secular space in official communication) how the parents of the 13-year-old boy asked the Lord about where their son is right now. From what I understand, two of their friends independent of each other received prophetic dreams that God was indeed the one who had taken their son home and that he did not suffer. The parents testified that he is now at a better place. May this account comfort us as we begin to recognise the Lord’s hand even in the midst of these recent events. Thank you all for praying! Blessings. The school counsellor, who also attended the wake, also testified that the boy’s parents are very comforted and hope that the boy’s legacy (e.g. church becomes united in prayer) will live on.

@@mabeldin7891 Mental Health is the issue here. And yet you say that its an excuse? Helping the 16 year old kid as well as providing help to students all over Singapore is the most important thing that is needed to do to prevent these things from happening.

@@SSBMA1994 There is no guarantee the unnamed murderer might be let into our society some 17 years later as a man of 33 with a very dark dark past and not fully recovered from his mental illness.

In singapore maybe, but not in other parts of the world. In the US, there is the slenderman stabbing, where 2 12-year old girls tricked their 12 year old friend into the woods, and stabbed her 19 times. There are a number of videos on this on youtube.

Problem is unless there is clear paperwork stating the 9 year old has the maturity of an adult which doesn't exist you can't ever trial them

A right person in mind with enough maturity will not kill his or her parent for no reason

@@everardgt1463 Sadism isn't considered diminished responsibility

No since there’s no proof.

Many research and tests were conducted to determine that those below 18 years old do not have a brain (physically speaking) that is matured, as those above would have.

He should go to every secondary school to share and teach all levels of students what's Law in Singapore

Death penalty is a relief of his physical pain but his consciousness and soul can never be redeemed. We solved the problem of eliminating the demon from the possibility to kill again but no1 is helping the boy to rid the demon of his consciousness. What is he thinking and what drive that to happen in our society.? Thinking of his source of anger and motivation scare me.

Agreed, for the short-term need to assign toilet ambassadors also.

They really should allow actually qualified counsellors to work in schools, my sec sch counsellors were full of shit (excluding the career guidance counsellor) and when my friend made a difficult choice of seeking for help with the counsellers, neither did they help to better her situation or at least provide useful advice they actually made her situation worst. Adults who are not 'qualified' for psychological jobs can impact vulnerable youths heavily even if it was unintentional.

People talk ... is there a law against gossiping?

If he's between 7-12, he'd spend a maximum of 20 years for murder in Juvenile Confinement. But since he's passed that, I'd say 30-50 years in prison and 24 strokes of a cane.

Probably smelling salts and carry on

i think they will have a doctor see if they can still go on, if not they will be brought back to recover and once they are well enough, they go get caning again

Depends on what you mean by at one go. If the person faint for 5 minutes can continue? What if faint 30 min? I guess best strategy to siam cane is to let the caning start ... then faint for long enough that they cannot complete the punishment at one go. :)

correct!

Didn’t they changed the kids’ names after that and give them a lot of protection from the public?

High social chaste school. Planned and sane. Just because admitted to imh before dosent mean someone has mental issues. Unless if your are born with a physical mental deficiency, 99% others are all wayang one and behavioral problem most likely caused by upbringing. Even his parents already stated they wont attend his court hearing. He obviously did this for attention or out of spite for his parents. The true example of money isnt everything.

Hi Daniel, What happened is a real tragedy, However the UN treaty was formed with the assumption that juveniles are still developing, And therefore not beyond redemption, They should be sent to jail for a finite term, Because unlike adults they are more capable of rehabilitation, That's the reasoning behind such a treaty in the first place.

This no longer applies already. Now the max sentence teenagers can get is life imprisonment (meaning that the minimum period they'll be behind bars is 20 years, following which there'll be a review every year to decide whether the prisoner is suitable to be released on parole)

Unless it's a democratically elected president or else it's no use

Millions and billions of humans are killed by humans throughout history. Even the wars now. This IS OUR NATURAL SOCIETY. Apa you talking.

if they can be counsel back to a "society's normal", they should be, unless the judge had already deemed him/her unsaveable.

Tbh u forgot the only killings allowed are from fighting in a real war against enemies to protect fellow good citizens not evil citizens. So be more specific lah.

If killing someone regardless of your age doesn't matter then I will recommend the murderer to murder more people before getting caught

Yea, spending money for free food n accommodation for twenty years for a mentally sick person who has commit a murder of some innocent people. After that, be let loose into the society at large and hopefully he doesn't relapse n kill another one. Not sure who think this is a good idea. What's wrong with getting rid of a a defect human? Life is never fair, there's so many innocent people with hard life needing help n never got sufficient help. Why don't we use the fund to help them instead. Rather than giving good life in prison for defect human being.

Where abouts? I have a holiday house in the middle of somewhere = Correze

its their own brain they decide what to do.

??? Victim? We do not even know if his mental illness is just an excuse but what we know is he took a person life. Can you change and revive the 13 year old? He's 16 and the victim is only 13. What sympathy does he deserve? How is he able to study in a normal school despite having mental illness? Why does he deserve a second chance when he didn't give the 13 year old a second chance? Isn't it easier for him if he gets death penalty, cos it's just putting him out of his misery?

If my 13 year old son does the same to your child. You wouldn't be saying such things

Watch the video and stop speculating 🤦‍♂️, they alrdy answered in 2:15 he will served life imprisonment. Also in 3:23 of the video says it has to be 20 years at least during the imprisonment, then he can be eligible for "parole interview" aka early prison release temporarily or permanently which shocked me cuz I didnt know life imprisonment can get parole if deemed sane by the doctor after 20 years of imprisonment...

@@poolfans I forgot he got mental condition since he have been to IMH 2 years ago. Also this incident he targeted random 13 years old kid who he dont even know. So probably not gonna be convicted to a murder and get murder charges but get reduce charges... Also its hilariously ironic your entire op comment is about "if" he is not convicted to a murder. And u even throw in random bs years range with small range difference u created. SO how about u stop spreading misinfos in ur speculation? My earlier assumption for the final sentencing of him getting murder charges was based on him killing with intent but I forgot he isnt mentally sound, anyway I will also stop assuming the final sentencing so u stop too. Since the authorities(MOE, police etc) literally ask us to refrain from speculating and wait for correct infos aka real final sentencing to be released. Though I have to said it is kinda hypocrite of you to said mine was entire based on "if" when u did it way before me in the first place in your op comment..
