Read the article "Biro Sentenced to Life in Winnetka Slayings" by Terry Wilson. When you're finished, write a two paragraphs reflection about the article and how it fits into our larger unit.
Here are some questions you MAY want to consider in your response:
- Did David deserve leniency in his sentence because of his age? Or was his crime so heinous that he deserved to get life without parole?
- Even if you feel GENERALLY that teenagers should not get LWOP, do you feel like David's case might be one of the exceptions where it is warranted?

- How does his behavior in the courtroom influence how you feel?

- Knowing what you know about teenage brains, do you think a "not-fully-developed-frontal-lobe" played a part in the decisions David made that night?

- Do you think that if the judge knew what we now know about teenage brains he would have sentenced David differently?
