Does abusive behavior toward animals not only portend abuse of another human being but also suggest the abuser may have been a victim of violence and/or mistreatment himself?   I did not read a word about either mandating psychological treatment for either men.  Something is wrong, definitely, for teens to do such horrible things to defenseless, innocent, harmless birds.  Perhaps the guy who got only 45 days was only one of a bunch of kids that were involved.  He was the only "adult."
