What the other culprit said, and whether he was forgiven, has absolutely no relevance to the question whether a bunch of people who had nothing to do with the case should appoint themselves to judge Miller unfit to pursue a career that suits his talents. You choose to believe the victim's mother – and no one else – apparently because it allows you to feel virtuous while calling out for revenge against another human being. You choose to completely ignore the testimony of many other people as quoted in the article by Adam Wodon. This article was cited already in this thread, but here is the link again, for your benefit:

I read that article already. Fully. It’s trash. Doesn’t say anything except that he should be good because he was young.
First of all, it’s not third party hearsay, it’s court and school record. Mitchell Miller was chastised by the magistrate for clearly showing no remorse in the case. The same was not said of the other boy. Mitchell Miller was also given a harsher punishment by the school for repeatedly lying about his involvement. None of this is hearsay and all contributes to the discussion that he felt no remorse until they actually affected his future.
I can see that you like to delete parts of people’s posts in your quotes and take them out of context. But I urge you to go back through my posts and show where I asked for “revenge” as you put it. I did not. I am merely stating that actions have consequences and if you refuse to actually believe that your actions are hurtful to others and only show “remorse” when it affects you, then you should continue to bear the consequences of your actions. Expecting that people face those consequences is not asking for revenge, nor is it so that I can “feel virtuous”. But by all means, continue to attack my character if it makes you feel like it justifies your beliefs.
Edit: Because I forgot to address this. Which quotes are you referring to in that article? It’s basically just an opinion piece. There are no quotes from others, other than the article saying “but he hired a black agent!”. Where is this testimony of many others you speak of?
