JR v. State green
alaskactapp · 2003
2 sentences

2015J.R. was the appeal of a minor who was prosecuted under the juvenile delinquency laws for second-degree murder under the theory that he acted with "extreme indifference to the value of human life" when he urged a friend to commit murder, and instructed the friend on how to use a shotgun. 3 This Court held that when the jury assessed whether J.R. acted with extreme indifference to the value of life, the jury should have been told to evaluate J.R.'s conduct "against the standard of a reasonable person of his age, intelligence, and experience", rather than against an adult standard. 62 P.3d at 11

2015(As we have explained, the defendant in J.R. was charged with second-degree murder under the theory that he acted with extreme or heightened recklessness-described by the statute as "extreme indifference to the value of human life".) We held that, given the circumstances of J.R.'s case, the jury should have been instructed to apply a lesser standard of care: that J.R.'s degree of recklessness should have been evaluated "against the standard of a reasonable person of his age, intelligence, and experience", rather than against an adult standard. 62 P.3d at 119 .
