No one deserves acid thrown at them AND young children should not be tried as adults.

Justice exist both for victims and perpretators. So that victims can obtain sentencing of their agressors, and that agressors get a fair and impartial sentencing, taking their age into account.

Good point, I misread that comment. So I edited my reply accordingly.

This is a serious crime and they deserve to be punished accordingly. And no matter how dumb and hateful they, they're minors so a judge can't ignore their age and relevant law to set a sentence.
