Should a 52 year-old man who has eluded justice for so many years enjoy protections normally afforded juvenile defendants simply because he was 15 when he committed the crime?
I think the essential question is at the age of 52 he needs to prove how he has conducted his life as an adult. Mistakes are made by people at 15, but if they continue on the path of crime they need to face the consequences of their actions. On the other hand if the mistake at 15 is the only one and they have contributed to society and lived a good life they need to face a fine or do community service to makeup for the past. There are consequences for all of our actions in life and so it is here.
