Latest reports say the prosecutors office is considering trying them as adults.
I just read this in a new article:
A spokesman for the family, Paul Spadafora, who was Autumn’s great-uncle, said, “We’re asking the attorney general to investigate (Gloucester County Prosecutor) Sean Dalton’s Office on protocol.”
“He called it swift justice,” Spadafora said. “We’re asking for a swifter response.”
He added, “At 12 years old, they could have done something better and quicker.”

If feel terribly for Autumn's family, but Amber Alert criteria wasn't met and I think authorities and the community acted very quickly on this one. By the time anyone realized that Autumn was missing, she was already dead at the hands of people known to her, in a confined space, and no one knew she was going there (to the best of our knowledge at this time).
Not sure what anyone could have done better. No one to blame but the perps, imo.
Her funeral is on Saturday.
