It is horrendous really, they are definitely victims in their own way. But in so many ways, younger is even worse. I mentioned child soldiers but even then, usually they live relatively normal childhoods up until age 9 or 10 before being taken from their families and twisted into killers. They have the memory of a peaceful life before all of it, a normality that with time they can rediscover once all of the horrors have been deprogrammed. I don't know what's left of someone like this 12 year old boy who has never known anything but that sort of existence, to whom violence and death *is* normality, if you strip all of that away.
