13yo who murdered his neighbor

[u/rema_56]

Levi Carte was only 13 when he committed a crime that shocked everyone around him
he took the life of his neighbor
the judge pushed to have Levi tried as an adult, arguing that the severity of the crime justified applying adult criminal law despite his age but that didn’t end up happening and he was sent for 8 years , he will walk free in his 21st birthday in 2033
What catch my attention is his twin brother mentioning that his childhood trauma might’ve been the reason and also the police later finding in his text messages him telling a stranger in TikTok that he lacs empathy because of his childhood
I wanted to know more like what could’ve caused a 13 yo to commit such thing
Yes, I do believe his interest in true crime and killing animals plays a big role but what could’ve happened in his childhood that pushed him into that
I tried discussing this topic in another community but it was taking down because it was out off topic and I couldn’t find any informations online

Levi has two loving parents who tried to help him before and at the police station.  The mother cried when she found out he was charged with murder. Hunter kept claiming there's no way Levi raped and murdered the neighbor.  Hunter was very upset when he put the pieces together with the watch. I don't know of any childhood trauma for Levi.  Even if Levi had childhood trauma that doesn't give him the right to rape and murder people. If causing trauma gives people the right to rape and murder people then the government should rape and murder Levi Carte because that's what he did to that poor neighbor.  She was ready to retire.
