Psychopathic behavior. Only thing to do would be lifetime commitment.
LiFeTiMe
Right ...
I thought I was going crazy haha. Adults don't even always do life for murder.
Sure you meant lifetime free mental services in response to something a 7 YEAR OLD did
Yup. Psychopaths can't really be cured.

Amazing that you know so much about this child's medical diagnoses. Where are you getting this information?
The fact that he straight up killed a guy he did not know and had no contact with. That's classic psychopathic behavior.
Follow that with threatening to kill another kid at school and bragging about how he already killed someone already.
Ah, so you're just full of shit and diagnosing someone you've never met with credentials you do not have.
what are the main elements of psychopathic behavior? surely it isn't about how much contact you have with the guy you kill. what in particular about that behavior is psychopathic?
https://www.healthline.com/health/psychopath
behavior that conflicts with social norms - Yes
disregarding or violating the rights of others - Yes
inability to distinguish between right and wrong - Yes
difficulty with showing remorse or empathy - Yes
tendency to lie often - Unknown, but likely.
manipulating and hurting others - Yes.
recurring problems with the law - Yes.
general disregard toward safety and responsibility - Yes.
expressing anger and arrogance on a regular basis - Yes.
So out of 7 categories, this kid hits 6 of them.
doesn't look like a list made for a 7 year old.
Psychopathy can present at any age.

didn't say it can't; this has nothing to do with my comment
what about idiocy?
Oh, man, if only there was a cure for idiocy...
For the grandfather, I assume you mean?
The grandfather is not the psychopath here.
He kept the murder weapon as a loaded pistol in his glovebox and then he sold it after the murder happened, so...
Means nothing. People in Texas keep loaded weapons and buy and sell them all the time. There's no evidence he knew what the kid did. In fact, there was very little contact between the kid and the victim, not surprising for psychopathic behavior.
If you keep loaded firearms where children can find them, with or without your knowing, then you deserve to be locked up for your psychopathic behavior.
Locked in a glovebox and locked in a car meets the safe storage guidelines in most states.
Yes I'm sure that's enough to keep it out of the hands of children. /s
