He should definitely look at the charges for each person, then take the correct path. They have a right to due process. If they violated someone's rights, then I would say no.

It's about time politicians accept consquences for their racist, false allegations! Slandering people for policital gain is abhorent and against the law. They should be prosecuted just like anyone else. And Bailey should not be using state funds to defend them!

Charles Schoene

These representatives were in no way acting on behalf of the State of Missouri or in their legislative capacity. They have no immunity and AG Bailey has no legal right to spend taxpayer funds in their defense.

She was as responsible for her son's problems, as the Mayor is for Columbia's problems.

The emotional response is 'Yes!', but logic kicks in. Bad mother? Yes. Bad decisions by mom? Yes. How far down the vine do you blame others for crimes they didn't personally commit? Why not go after the principle? The teacher? Aren't they as culpable as the mom?

Donna Raines

The son was tried as an adult, so where is this going to go, later if a 30 year old shoots up something, will the parents be tried. But I also do not think the 15 year old should have been tried as a adult, he had depression,

Donna Raines

The guy was tried as a adult , so where is this headed, later if a 30 year old shoots up something are they gonna go after the parents? But I don't think a 15 year old should be tried as a adult, he can't gamble, drink or be allowed in the military. Who decides who is a adult?
