This case raises so many issues for me who, like you, has done defense (although of juveniles accused of more minor crimes) and is a parent. The 8 year old victim and reported nonchalant expression of Dzokhar gave me pause. But it is in these “hard cases,” as you point out, that we must most vigilantly uphold everyone’s right to a defense and articulate the problems with execution.

I feel the court and representation should go above and beyond the call of duty to make sure the sentence is suitable and with in reason. Children are more likely to learn from their mistakes cause majority of the time a mistake is exactly what it is. They should not suffer the beginning of their life cause they made a bad choice in the beginning.
