Last year sometime I was reading through the Old Bailey Proceedings from 1674 to 1834 where you can search on various variables such as age of person and penalty and it is shocking to see how many very young children were sentenced to death though those I read were all later changed to deportation or something. Still, deporting a 7 year old across the world. Makes you wonder.
