Children can be tried as adults, so can adults be tried as children?

Asked by Ltryptophan (12091points) February 2nd, 2017

Is that the same as saying they are insane, or mentally competent?

How well is this tested? Since I would argue it is extremely immature to commit most criminal offenses are we sure that everyone committing these offenses is mentally old enough to stand trial?
