From Jr. High School on up they will cuff them and take them down town for a fight and what happens after that I do not know but they do not let fights go like they did when I was in middle to high school they book you. Far as the crime here it was a hate crime and the boys are young and should not have a record if they do some probation but it was still very wrong and full of hate and the courts look at that motive too.
