Why are some people calling this two-time armed robber (18 when he committed the crimes and 19 when sentenced) a "child" or a "teen"?

This discussion is turning into a Death Penalty issue. I'll be posting in the Death Penalty thread to prove that the anti-Death Penalty folks are making sentimental, fraudulent claims. In this thread, I'll say that the Death Penalty cannot be applied to this violent criminal because - he's eligible for parole.
Eighteen, nineteen. He's eligble for parole after 188 years. Let's see...that would make him 205 years old when he goes before the parole board. I'm pretty sure they don't grant parole posthumously.
