I don't think the mom gives him much attention or support and he can do what he wants. Mama is looking for a million dollar payout. I could take it more seriously if it was $50K or even $200K but a million.

F off and stop sockpuppeting, racist.

Regardless of this mother's race, which was brought up here, mom is looking for a pay out. If it were my child, I'd make sure he got mental health treatment, change my parenting and change schools for a better fit.

^^ This.

Of course the impulse of some is to shriek "BOTH SIDES" "IT HASN'T GONE TO TRIAL!!!" no matter what the evidence presented strongly suggests. Some people can't even say, "Maybe there's a chance this has been misinterpreted, but it looks pretty bad for the police, considering the selected quotes and existence of footage." No, it MUST be the mom is at least 50%-- and probably closer to 99%-- likely to be money-grubbing and lying regardless of all of the suggestive evidence and the fact it's not fun to go to trial, have your name dragged in the mud, etc.

I wish they'd just say what they want to say-- "Everyone, but especially Black people, should just shut up and take whatever the police choose to dish out." Fascists.

One one hand, the kid ran away from school. One of the things that the article objects to seems to be that the police picked up the kid, put him in the car and drove him back to school. To me, that's what I'd expect. The police's first job in that circumstance is definitely to get the kid back to the adults who are caring for him. Yes, being "placed in a squad car" (one of the things they object to) is scary, but I'm not sure how else they should get the child back to school

It sounds like some of the things they said while they were doing it were out of line, but honestly without the other side it's just hard to say.

I don’t understand why they are objecting to this part. The yelling and kid handcuffs are way out of line, but I take it with a grain of salt since they’re making a big deal about being “placed in a squad car”.

The kid wasn’t placed in handcuffs. While in the principals office it was suggested that the child feel what a handcuff looks like. It wasn’t more of a learning process. It was one handcuff and it was too large for the kids wrist.this is all lawyer bull crap.

Ah, the Body Camera Footage Viewer has logged in! Tell us, what other proof of the cops' innocence is shown on the tape?

This is why cops should never be in schools. This delusional cop on this thread will do anything to defend a colleague... this is why police abuse is never reported.

Thin blue line is a racist organization that says don’t cross the blue line and snitch or you will not get back up. Cops have turned into a cult that can’t think for themselves.

do you know the race of the officers?

It's irrelevant. The thread is the story.

well it is relevant. if it was black officers mistreating a black child, that changes the narrative.

....it really doesn't.

I think most of us who read the story assumed that at least one of the cops was Black, and probably both. That doesn't mean race wasn't a factor at key points in this story.

Police officers, even Black ones, work inside a system in which Black children are adultified and where abuse of Black kids is less likely to be reported or taken seriously. The individual officer doesn't need to be racist against the child for this to have racial implications. The cop can just be abusive, and have a sense that they will get away with it because the child is Black.

So, if its a white child, treat them however you want, including being abusive but if its a child of color, well, really only Black, you have to treat them differently and put them on a pedestal. You aren't doing kids any good treating them differently. There is a lot more to this story. Kids don't typically leave school.
