I must admit, I don't quite see why the punishment should be tempered because they didn't intend for anyone to get hurt. That's not the way felony law ever works when someone does, in fact, get hurt. (Not withstanding that the person getting hurt was one of the boys.) Seriously, I think he ought to throw the book at them.
War and Peace, by preference.
