If a parent files a police report, MCPD shouldn’t be able to defer to MCPS if an actual crime was committed. MCPS is not law enforcement and are not qualified to determine if something is a chargeable offense or not. That’s what police and the State’s Attorney are for.

Are the dispatch recordings still available to hear?

Yes, you can listen to archived dispatch calls on openmhz. These have been starred so they should be easy to find.

So YES, taken OUT OF STATE to a high level peds trauma unit.

Not sure why you're emphasizing the "out of state." The closest options to a real ER are out of state.

I’m not that poster but I’m pretty sure both suburban and Adventist are closer that Fairfax innova to lakelands and both of them are “real” ERs. That’s where my kids went for head traumas!

No, they're not. Those aren't fully staffed with specialists. Instead, they need to call them in. You don't want to go to either of those in a true emergency- especially Shady Grove.

So the nearest fully staffed ER is Fairfax INOVA and National Children’s hospital? Which is an hour or two away with traffic.

Pediatric trauma ER, yes. Suburban is the only adult trauma ER in the county. It’s not uncommon for kids injured in MoCo to go to Inova. For parts of the county they’ll get there faster than Children’s. Dispatch and the Emergency resource center take volume, distance, and time of day into account as they determine which hospital to transport to.

So if they determined that she needed to go to Inova, then they deemed it serious?

Yes. I’ve only heard them take traumatic injuries there (car crashes, abuse).

Also, I went back to see if I can link the archived call and heard a police dispatch at 3:14 (so about the same time) to Mill Creek Towne ES for a staff member biting a student. The call said the staff member was put on admin leave but good lord.

Maybe we need an article about that to come out.

MCPS has _zero_ incentive to report incidents to the police. Then the public finds out, and it makes them look bad.

Universities used to be the same way, covering up crimes on campus. Then they passed the Clery Act which requires them to report it. Liberty University just got a big fine for covering up sexual assaults on campus:

Sadly, Clery Act does not apply to K-12, only higher ed institutions.

Thank you. I found it. Number 10 and 24.

Those who are trying to say this was all fake, well there you have it. Just because all main stream media did not pick it up does not mean that it didn't happen.

If you have free time in general take a look at police dispatched incidents on the county’s open data site and filter by place to see the calls that go to schools every single day. Those are just dispatches so they don’t all become crime reports (though you can search the crime data and use the street name of your child’s school). Also very educational.

This is why hospitals have helicopter pads and even ambulances have sirens to clear traffic.

Honestly, even a very serious respiratory case will be sent on to Children’s or INOVA. I don’t think they can intubate a child at Shady Grove or the other hospitals in MOCO. They can help a lot of cases, but not children who will need ICU-level care.

If you need immediate, specialized care, it is going to be faster, and ultimately better, to send you directly to a tertiary care center than through a local emergency room, even if it takes a little more time initially in transit. That's the major advance to emergency medicine that R Adams Cowley is known for (the namesake of UMMC's Shock Trauma).

It's significant because, here in the dmv, in general and Md specifically, there are numerous major hospitals and medical centers. The child's injuries were such that they required her being transported to a hospital out of state.

Yes, and the ones in-state happen to be further away than Inova Fairfax. Even the ones in DC, which would still be "out of state" are further away in terms of driving time.

Why do you post these lies? Adventist is 3 miles from LPMS.
Holy Cross is 6 miles.

Yet they went to Inova 23 miles from the school.
Why the lies?

Shady Grove, Suburban, and Holy Cross all have limited peds services.

That is my point. She wasn't sent to Inova because it was closer. It's not by literal miles. She was sent to Inova because she needed critical care due to her injuries.

It's mind boggling that someone is trying to minimize what happened to a 12 year old child.
It's repugnant.

Rereading the nextdoor thread, yet another parent , Rick B, claims there is a history of violence and bullying from the girls responsible for this act.
Shame, Shame on MCPS

Perhaps their kid was the assailant or is a bully and a bad kid for them to think this is ok. I hope that 12-year-old is ok. Scarry and sad. How horrible for that child and their parents.

I could swear that one of the posters here saying these things goes by the name Suzanne on nextdoor. She refers to 2021 on ND, same way she does here. She also said no news picked it up so it is all fake. Who knows what her agenda is, since she is in the next town over, in Wootton cluster. Maybe she works at MCPS. Now we have someone who posted the link above for hearing dispatch. At 3:16pm on 1/24 there is a recording that shows mcfrs was dispatched to LPMS. This poster also said there was no letter sent to parents and yet there were at least 2 parents who spoke about LPMS sending a letter that made it sound like it was a small incident. One parent also spoke about a townhall for the students after that letter was sent out.

There is also another poster trying to minimize this trying to convince everyone that it was not a serious injury. Like the other PP said, maybe their kid was the bully.

On our nextdoor, recently, an admin from LPMS recently posted about hiring someone for landscaping. Google LPMS on nextdoor and her name shows up. So yes, they are aware of what we are saying on nextdoor and trying to cover this up. My kid will be attending middle school year next year and this just makes me so angry. It could happen to any of our kids.

OP, how did you change the title to MS?

Oh I just saw RN’s posts after the fact—thanks. That’s good to know.

I know a child who was helicoptered to Children's from MD for a head injury after a car accident..and released the next morning with a mild concussion. Hope this child is also lucky like that
