A Mexican judge on Tuesday sentenced a 14-year-old U.S. citizen to three years in prison for organized crime, homicide, kidnapping, and drug and weapons possession.

A judge gave Edgar Jimenez Lugo the maximum sentenced allowed.

The max is not enough! They get to go to Con College and learn a better trade? Posting your deeds on YouTube and mugging for the camera. What other's need to be tried as adults and put away for life?

Sorry to see they treated this young man like a child. He murdered four people in cold blood on orders. He did not know he was doing wrong? Sure!

Still, what I hope for most is that they get his bosses who ordered the killings.

He'll probably be just slightly safer in prison than working for his former employer. Question is what happens when he's released at age 17.
