If a juvenile were to kill anyone, it would depend on whether that state wants to prosecute the offender as a youth or as an adult. If he or she is prosecuted as a youth, in most states, the offender would only serve a sentence until they reached age 21. That is why many states now try juveniles as adults, so they can be given a longer sentence for their crime.
