Turtles= Bad Guys?!!!

Someone mentioned to me that the Turtles were originally criminals, ie, "bad guys" in the original comics.. I dug up my old copies of Volume 1 and I am trying to figure this mystery out....

I suppose they were "law breakers", but they were never bad guys....

By brutally beating them to near death and then knocking their thermite grenade, which they threw as a last ditch effort to destroy you, back at them killing them and avenging your sensi's sensi's death?

Of course they're criminals. They've always been criminals.

Hell, even Batman's a criminal. It doesn't make them bad people.

Yeah, but also add "vagrancy" and the more serious "murder" to their list.

Gang members get arrested for doing that sort of thing every day.

Tell it to the judge.

But the Turtles are animals, not human beings. If a dog kills a human of its own accord, it would be destroyed, but could it be legally charged with murder?

Does it matter? Getting the death sentence for your actions seems like the important part.
