I am absolutely outraged at how some people can sit here and say horrible things about these teens! I went to school with all six of them, and they are all wonderful students, children, friends, brothers and sisters! Yes, they made a huge mistake, and they will pay for it. They have put themselves through enough pain! They are not walking away with a slap on the wrist; they will live with this mistake for the rest of their lives! For anyone who does not know these teens personally, you have no idea how torn up inside they all are! No one has a right to judge this or any other situation!
