In recent weeks, two D.C. girls — ages 13 and 15 — have been charged with murder and carjacking. The older girl recently pleaded guilty. At a marketplace in Prince George’s County, where at least 100 preteens and teenagers were gathered after 10 p.m. on a Saturday, a 13-year-old boy was stabbed and wounded, another 13-year-old boy was shot and killed, and a 12-year-old boy was charged with murder. He was the eighth youth in the county to be charged with murder this year, compared with six juveniles charged with the crime last year.
