<p><strong>To the Editor:</strong></p><p>I am sitting here sad and crying. I just cannot believe our justice system. A 15-year-old boy was shot and killed by another boy. Our prosecutor agreed to a plea bargain of up to 2.5 years. This is something I cannot understand.</p><p>I do understand that in some cases, to convict, you need to plea bargain, but 2.5 years? Why not five or 10? Still not long enough, but at least some punishment.</p><p>How can his mother, father and family get any comfort from this? This young boy who did the shooting has just been put into time-out. Is that the correct punishment for killing someone?</p><p><p><strong>Patricia Giuliani</strong></p><p><p><strong>Bargersville</strong></p>
