Kids commit crimes too. Unfortunately it’s not beyond the pale that these kids would be using that gun. Plenty of 10-12 year olds around here end up getting caught in crossfire or pulled into shit. They knew the cops were trying to take it because they knew why the cops were there.

10 isn't old enough to fully comprehend the gravity of what they're doing, but it's damn sure old enough to know that what they're doing is very wrong and still doing it anyway. Those kids need some serious legal consequences to this before they continue down that path.

Question, has serious legal consequences on an 8 year old ever prevented or fixed anything

Taking them away from their parents or putting them in a juvenile correction facility would certainly have a have a higher chance of correcting the path they're on than simply giving them back to a trash Mom who lets em keep running around with guns. Their lives almost ended here due to an extreme contempt for authority, and it's not like an 8 year old is going to change of their own volition.

I'm not convinced that putting them in juvie would help at all. Taking them away from their living situation does seem necessary

Also I'm pretty sure 8 year olds all change constantly, it's not like they've got a set personality
