Some of the adults around them felt that was okay - given their history.1930s | 1940s | 1950s | 1960s | 1970s | 1980s | 1990s | 2000s | 2010s | Former Students | Trustees | Faculty | Staff | Friends of FSC Class of 1930s Remember when we first met Alex he hadn't even seen Derek since they went to juvenile detention. For all these years - they've been apart. The brothers say they are grateful for all this - but something's been missing. Kathryn Medico: He ended up being in- a juvenile institution for seven years, which I feel was completely appropriate now, had we just gone ahead and given him 15 or 20 years to think about it, I really think we wou- he would not be salvageable.
Kathryn Medico believes Alex was saved - when he was taken out of the adult prison system. And the King brothers, they say, were the lucky ones.
But the fact is, is that it just doesn't happen very often.ĭan Dailey, Kathryn Medico, and others- the random people who surfaced in these boys lives have come to agree on at least one point: Children should not be tried as adults. Jurors said it was Alex's banal yet horrifying description of the murder scene that told them the boys weren't in Rick Chavis car at all: They were there in the house, present at the killing.ĭan Dailey: You know, we pay a lot of lip service to giving kids a second chance. Would a jury convict them of murdering their father with a baseball bat? In five hours, the boys had their answer. In the waning days of summer 2002, while most kids were getting ready to head back to school, Alex King and his brother Derek were waiting to find out if they were heading to prison. The jurors almost certainly noticed that childish demeanor, but what did it mean? That these children were so emotionally detached that they really could have beaten their father to death? Or that they were so infantile they could be manipulated into covering for Rick Chavis? Kathy: when James Stokes, the attorney for Alex, was giving this very impassioned plea before the jury, fighting for this child's life literally, he finally went and- and he sat down at the defense table and looked over at Alex to see Alex's reaction.
