    Probation? I dont think so, under the 10-20-life law their looking at a minimum 25 years, up to a life sentence. Sad to see someone throw away their life like that.

    Time to grow up. I went to school with these two, and drugs got the best of them.

    They don’t appear to know what these pictures were about.

    19 years old and charged with the felony of aggravated battery and attempted robbery with a firearm, sounds like they have a great future planned for themselves.
    Both are nice looking kids so will likely quickly make many friends in jail.
    What a shame, what a loss over something that did not have to happen.
    Hope the victim is going to recover fully.
    These days nobody seems to be safe from others who intend harm.
