DC laws pertaining to juveniles:
The max they can hold anyone for is until they turn 21. They also HAVE to offer them a plea deal. They’ll probably take the deal and be out in 2-3 years and records will be wiped clean.
If they weren’t so lenient with kids for serious offenses, then the 13 year old wouldn’t have even been out there after getting caught in January.
This is not a hypothetical. This is what is actually going to happen.
