1.) I think the boys should be punished, but not as seriously as adults. There could have been a reason as to why they beat the man. Just because it was such aa brutal act, no one will listen to their side of the story. They should have a chance to state why they did it.
2.) Their identities should remain undisclosed because they are kids. There is no further reasoning why they should remain undisclosed.
3.) Society could try to keep theses crimes from happening by paying attention to their surroundings and hiring more law enforcement.
