During a hearing Thursday in St. Johns, a judge set sentencing for Jan. 14. That's more than a year after the boy was charged in a double homicide.....
Under the plea deal, he won't serve any time in the state juvenile corrections facility but could be sentenced to a county juvenile facility. Treatment and probation are other options.

IMO unfortunately they do not represent the TRUE Tim Romans either.
snipped by me.
This is exactly why Roca was removed. I wouldn't call the letters typical victims impact statements, they are dramatic and emotional, even making accusations against the boys biological mom, which is not the place for these types of things.

so he should not have a "normal and merry Christmas"? -and what kind of Christmas should he have instead?

I've written and read aloud a victim impact statement. This is exactly what they are.
How do you expect the victims to describe the impact in their lives, having their father/husband gunned down by a cold blooded killer? How could that possibly be unemotional ?????? How about you try, just for a second, placing yourselves in their shoes? Instead of worry to death if the boy had a "normal" and merry christmas with his mother...think about the victims who spent Christmas without their father/husband.
They are simply sharing their feelings, their loss and their desire for justice!
A Christmas in "juvie" would be my choice for him.
