Also a nice way to start off 2025 for her lawyer who’ll take a big cut, and I’m sure a Go Fund Me is in the works for her parents’ lost wages and the “stress” of the situation.

Settlement courtesy of us taxpayers, via the dumb cops. Yes, the cops should have more education and be better… but who else is going to do it?  We’re stuck with the few stupid individuals who agree to go into law enforcement.

(I’m not mocking the legitimate fear and stress that this CHILD has endured… just commenting on what a joke our law enforcement is and how everyone takes a tragedy and turns it into personal gain and nothing will change). [/quote]

Why is everyone looking for a major handout? Amazing culture[/quote]

It’s not a payout. It’s about holding police departments accountable. Unfortunately, the only thing that typically happens is a settlement. While the cops just get a slap on the wrist and some “training”. [/quote]

In this case it's not clear the cops are even getting a slap on the wrist. The department released a statement saying they were fully in the right.

I guess I can't understand how this poor kid ended up in cuffs. Even if she's tall, she's still clearly a child, and was accompanied by another child, and they were both carrying backpacks in a school zone. How hard would it have been to just say "Hey, kid, where are you coming from" and the kid presumably would answer that they are coming from their 5th grade classroom and then be on their way.

I'm also pretty alarmed at the (white, male) cop telling this kid's cousin to move along. God bless the cousin for having the courage to not only stay when the cop tells her to leave her tween cousin alone with him, but to film it as well. [/quote]

This is an understated part of all of this. Had the cousin not recorded this, I’m sure the 11 year old would’ve ended up being taken and booked, or this entire story would’ve been swept under the rug. [/quote]
