A teenager charged in connection with a violent home invasion at a Dover mobile home will stand trial in adult court.
Judge Robert Birnbaum made that finding Wednesday following an adult certification hearing in the case of Thomas Vilai, 17, of Rochester. He is one of five people accused of barging into the house the night of Jan. 6. All of them were charged with robbery, burglary and assault with dangerous weapons.
Two other teens were also charged in juvenile court and have pleaded guilty to four counts of first-degree aggravated robbery. Two 18-year-olds were charged in adult court and their cases remain open.
Good. I wish they could try them all as adults. Eighteen is an arbitrary age, anyway. These kids knew they were doing wrong.
