This paragraph intrigues me "If he had been a year older when he committed his crimes, he could have been handed a ten-year custodial sentence. "

Do they mean over 18? Is 10 years the maximum sentence for a triple killing by an adult in Spain?

[emmie]

no idea, but here he'd get a lot longer in jail i would think.

what the funicular ^^

their law of common intent is good
if you go to Ethpanya with a group of lads
and you say in the hotel room
and the lads go out and wreck a bar

YOU will be indicted as well.

The Angry Age, by prize-winning Spanish author Nando Lopez. Since this book was on his reading list, are we expected to believe this was a major factor in him committing such an awful heinous crime?

// Aristophanes - in the Clouds I think //

Ultimately the protagonist having been taught in the school of Socrates, holds the teachings of the institute in contempt.

Is this your way of saying you excuse the actions of the 15 year old boy?

"Do they mean over 18? Is 10 years the maximum sentence for a triple killing by an adult in Spain?"

The link states the boy is fifteen but not sure if that means now or at the time of the shooting.

Either way, the relevant age must be sixteen and not eighteen.

1. it is spain
2. different penal code
3. different ages of responsibility

they dont have manslaughter which it could be - actually on reading, it cdnt. Manslaughter in spain is homocidio doloso which is a completely different kettle of fish

but we really always knew that - didnt we

Por debajo de los 14 años un menor no tiene ningún tipo de responsabilidad penal.

Below 14y a minor has no criminal responsibility under the code ( my translation) - graded 16-18y
In Spain for chrissakes before anyone says....
