i believe the evidence incriminates not the law.

The same laws as the ones that are for adults. But typically they look at the age of the offender, and decide if they are to be treated as a minor or an adult. They also usually look at severity of the crime committed. Lastly, they adjust the punishment for youthful offenders and adults. Obviously it is a little harsh to sentence a minor of 10 years old to life in prison - more so than an adult of 30. . .

Am a bit confused about the question. Our laws pertain to everyone. The sentencing pertains to the Juvenile Code of Justice, if they are under 18.

Laws don't incriminate a person. Your question needs clarification.

It depends on what state you are in. In California minors are charged with 601 and 602 of the Welfare and Institiutions code.

The word is "WHICH" and it would be under the Juvenile Court Laws.
