The 13 Victim's of the DC Sniper

This is the memorial to the victim's of the DC area sniper. This case highlights a teenager that worked in tandem with an adult accomplice to committ horrific crimes. In the end, the sniper, Lee Boyd Malvo, killed 10 random innocent victims and wounded 3 others, ruining countless lives.


If the court or the legislators consider changing the existing life sentences for juvenile offenders, then Mr. Malvo would be eligible at some point for parole. Is it cruel and unjust to sentence an offender who was not an adult when they committed their crimes? Is it cruel and unjust to put these people's families through the pain of re-living such an unimaginable tragedy over and over again?


The victims are listed below, with our thoughts and prayers.
