There are thousands of Lionels out there

Well said, Jeff.
Unfortunately this happens everywhere, not only in Florida.
Children as young as 9 and 10 are being targeted by police,
put through the juvenile system
and when they are old enough to be prosecuted as adults they are treated the same as Lionel.

The only difference is that Lionel's original case was so unusual
that he became a household word.

There are thousands of Lionels out there, some barely able to walk
waiting to become "juvenile justice's" next statistic.
