Delaware judge convicts girl in fatal school bathroom attack

WILMINGTON, Del. — A Delaware judge found a 17-year-old girl delinquent of criminally negligent homicide Thursday in the beating death of her classmate at a high school last year.

Amy Inita Joyner-Francis
Delaware Family Court Judge Robert Coonin also found Trinity Carr and another 17-year-old girl delinquent of third-degree criminal conspiracy for the death of Amy Inita Joyner-Francis during a fight in the bathroom of a Wilmington high school.

A delinquent finding in Family Court is a guilty verdict.

A third teenage girl was found not delinquent of criminal conspiracy. Prosecutors had argued all three planned an "attack" on Joyner-Francis, a term Coonin also used while delivering his judgment to describe the confrontation.

So killing a fellow classmate only gets you probation till 19 years old,

So you were found guilty of homicide and that means you wear an ankle bracelet for roughly 18 months. Wow. Why did they even bother with a trial?

It does when they charge you as a juvenile rather than as an adult as she should have been charged.

Agreed! She had intent to harm and should have been held accountable.

A girl tried to do that to my wife back when she was in high school. My wife ended up putting her in the hospital.

I hope karma gets her. She needs to be beat with a baseball bat by the girls family. Let them at her.
