The kids accused of shoplifting were charged with felonies and eventually plead down to misdemeanors.
Race is always a factor in America, especially its criminal justice system, are the students confessions genuine contrition or motivated by fear of disproportionate punishment?

They were arrested by the cops in the middle of the act of assaulting the employee (kicking him while he was on the ground) and with the shoplifted property on their possession. A conviction was already assured, the guilty plea was an extremely rational move, whether out of contrition or fear.
