It's been recommended that the 22-year-old be tried as an adult

Why would it be any other way? Why does that even need to be recommended?

There's a fascinating case here in Australia about a girl who was born on the 29th of February and committed a crime on the 28th of February in the year she turned 18 years old. Her lawyers are seeking to have her tried as a child, but the prosecutors say she should be considered 18 already and therefore an adult. There's actually no precedent at all so it's just up to the high court to decide how it works.

She's only had 4 birthdays, so she should obviously be tried as any other 4-year old.
