I think it's a troll. The light thigh touch and the resulting "PTSD like" response sealed it for me.
I think some people just tend to be very very fragile. You can tell OP is the same way by how she posts.

But if you go scorched earth over something relatively minor like this you aren’t helping your child process, you are further traumatizing them.

That doesn’t make sense. Are you saying the cop wouldn’t write a report? Get a lawyer, file a police report. Only a prosecutor can keep you from pressing charges. They can decline to prosecute or strike a plea deal, but that’s different.
He let us file a police report and said that he needed a signature but when we came back for that he said he would not have probable cause.
but there is video!
this is bs
I wonder if the police officer or someone in the school district is family members with the boy
did they at least say he's not allowed to ride the bus anymore??
op, I know someone whose son engaged in consensual hooking up with his girlfriend. both the girlfriend and her parents agree it was consensual and have not pressed charges. the same thing happened a year ago and the school is making the boy go to an alternative school for the rest of the school year. both sets of parents were shown the video.
ask to see the video. subtly take out your camera and video it while they are showing it to you.
No one is family with him. He was shortly suspended for a few days but that was all. I saw it but they would not let me have it.
This seems appropriate. A suspension is a big deal. What do you want to happen?
He's regularly suspended and has been suspended three times since. I need proper justice.
OP, the kid lightly touched your DD's thigh according to you; and he was suspended because of it. What additional justice do you need? I'm not trying to make light of what happened, but you can't possibly expect that they'll send the kid to juvie because of it, do you?
My DD holds grudges and let go over something like this, don't want to ruin her life. The report itself would help tremendously.
As long as you're fine with the punishment and have accepted everything, then you need to have a talk with your DD and let her know that yes, it was not right what he did, but he did get punished accordingly. She needs to learn how to react when something like this happens again (say something to the ahole, slap him, kick him in the balls, etc.) and move on. She shouldn't let this incident ruin her life. Realistically, she's going to experience much worse than this at some point.. which may require actual police intervention.

Being touched on the thigh is not assault.
It is not a crime.
It's textbook assault.
These could be 8 yr olds. Some ages would help
Op says they are in high school.
