Teen Sentenced to Two Years for Killing Foster Mother in Car Theft Attempt

The 13-year-old boy, who was 12 at the time of the incident, ran over Marcia Grant with her own car and fled the scene.

A 13-year-old boy has been sentenced to two years in custody for killing his foster mother, Marcia Grant, by running her over with her own car when he was 12.
The boy, who cannot be named due to his age, had attempted to steal the car and fled the scene after the incident.
Upon his arrest, he was found to be in possession of a kitchen knife and made comments suggesting a lack of remorse, although his defense argued these were 'misguided childish bravado'.
Marcia Grant was a well-respected foster mother in the community, and her death has had a profound impact on her family and those who knew her.
The boy will be held in a secure youth center due to his age, and has been disqualified from driving for six years.
