Re: juvenile

The defendant may still be tried as an adult. A few factors will be considered including his age. You should advise him to hire an attorney to argue that he be tried as a juvenile. If you want to contact my criminal associate, his name is Musa Ghanayem and he can be reached at 631.456.7007.
