I am not rapping your knuckles.
I am(like you) expressing an opinion.....trying to add something to the discussion.
Not the fudges and the red herrings that some have thrown in with the intention of diverting the discussion to other topics.....which could be threads in their own right.....and have no real relevance to the subject being discussed.....and some of which have been fully covered in other threads.

As for your question about naming and shaming. It appears that there is precious little shame in the youths that do questionable/criminal acts these days.....so, No would be my answer......and you have come quite a way since your first thoughts......wanting a thorough psychological/ psychiatric appraisal of this youth now.
He has to go through the due process of law, I'm sure that he will be subjected to such an appraisal prior to any conviction or sentencing.
