Cruel and Unusual Life

"According to court papers and a report from the Equal Justice Initiative, which now represents Mr. Sullivan, only eight people in the world are serving sentences of life without parole for crimes they committed when they were 13. All are in the United States.

"And there are only two people in that group whose crimes did not involve a killing. Both are in Florida, and both are black."
