Those charges very well could lead the 15 year old into an adult court, where they will be sentenced to adult sized penalties.

However, if left in Juvenile Court, they can be sentenced to imprisonment to the Youth Authority until they reach the age of majority for the corrections department, which can be 21 or 25 years old...
