Scenario 3
Devin (age 17) and Carlos (age 16) were known around the neighborhood as "future Felons" because
of their frequent run-ins with the law. One afternoon, they decided they wanted to run the local drug
dealer out of business and take over his clientele. In order to accomplish this, the boys needed
money. So they came up with a plan. The next evening. Devin and Carlos put on dark clothing and
ski masks and broke into the corner drugstore about an hour after closing. Neither of them was
aware of a night watchman, so when Mr. Hernandez surprised them, Devin, who was carrying a gun,
accidently shot and killed Mr. Hernandez. Frightened, both boys fled the scene. When the
pharmacist arrived the next morning, she found Mr. Hernandez lying in a pool of blood in front of the
prescription counter.
