This is not right.

"[9-year-old] Shanice faces manslaughter charges for allegedly stabbing an 11-year-old friend to death in a dispute over a rubber ball."

This is not right. How does a 9-year-old child possess the rage required to stab someone to death? How does this happen? This is just heartbreaking...

At a very early age children know what is right and wrong. I noticed signs of sin in my children as early as 1. I feel sad for this little girl, but that doesn't mean she shouldn't pay for what she has done.

i am going to sound like a broken record and blame it on violent tv and video games.
no really, i'm going to blame it on the parents. i think kids that young are too young to understand the gravity of murder, but i do think they are old enough to understand "don't touch knives".
