When police arrested Smith and Rycroft, the prosecution said they were “laughing and joking” with two of their friends and using nitrous oxide in front of officers.

Absolutely horrific. The parents and schools and friends of that girl have failed her so badly that she felt it ok to stab someone to death. Horrible.

Everyone at fault except the perpetrator. What a logic.

Point to where I said this. Use your powers of logic and reasoning to show me where I said what you claimed.
Otherwise, fuck right off.

PSA this is called a “strawman argument” and is a logical fallacy
A strawman is the construction of an argument not present in the original premise which is then argued against.
In this case the strawman is “everyone at fault except the perpetrator” (emphasis mine) the original premise did not explicitly exclude the perp.

Kinda curious now, roughly what age do we consider someone fully responsible for their actions, rather than parents/school?
From a society perspective rather than legally.
