The defendant is likely to get more of a jolt than 4 years, BTW.  He can be sentenced to CYA as a juvenile until he's 25.  I'm sure the interested parties will come to some sort of arrangement.

Ah, that's what I wasn't sure about, if someone tried as a minor could be held past the 18th birthday.  Still, 11 years max for premeditated murder, wiping someone out of existence because of who they are?  Not enough.
