Yesterday 4 teenages, were pulled from class-rooms. They were told they would go straight to Juvinial Detention. If they withhold any information, by local police. No one got permission from parents for this line of questioning, to be done while at school.
These children didn't even know anything about what the police wanted information on. Isn't there a law to protect our kids? And make it the right of us as parents to know if they are being questioned, and by whom is questioning?

This seems to be more the "norm" rather than an isolated incident. A friend of mine had her 16 year old "special ed" son interrogated for 4 hours by 4 cops who already knew he didn't have anything to do with the high speed chase in a car that she rented for a so called friend, who ended up causing her a lot of trouble. My point is that the government is stripping away it's citizens rights, the rights this country was founded on, and is systematically breaking down the family unit. If people don't
come together and take some of the wind out of these new laws that are being promulgated by this free turned fascist government. I know that in my days as a minor anybody interrogated me no matter what I may have done and my father would have kicked some butt.

First off, the school should be held responsible for their actions. We send our children to school to hopefully be educated, then protected. When the principle failed to contact the parents about their children being questioned by police s/he failed in protecting them, that oughta be his/her ***. Especially with the juveniles being threatened on going to JD. They should have gotten permission first from the parents, and given the parents the opportunity to be present before the juveniles were questioned.
The police officers should have known this too. Well, there is no "should of", they did know this. Those juveniles have as many rights as we adults do. They had the right have a parent present, even a right to a lawyer before they were questioned, they even have the right to remain silent, and they have the right to due process. Hell, they even have the right to refuse to be questioned. But because they were juveniles, they used intimidation on them to question them, and got away with it.
See, If this was just a questioning, such as.."Did you see so-n-so Friday night do this/that?" or "Did you notice any strange goings on at the local Sonic Friday night?" etc...it wouldn't get my dander up so much, but because they threatened these young people, it makes me wonder if they are not looking to hang these kids with a criminal act, or they would not have threatened juvenile detention. They pulled these four kids for a reason, or they would have questioned more juveniles.
Is there a connection between these four juveniles? Or was this a random pull of juvies? They don't just pull four juveniles out of a hat for nothing.....

That doesn't seem right. The parents need to contact the county attorney asap and find out what the heck is going on and the justification for those actions, as those are minors and parents have the right to be present during any questioning (unless the parents are the reason for the questioning and the minor is in danger from the parents.) The parents should get on this right away. I don't think anything that happened with that is ok. The school should have known better and contacted the parents before the kids were even pulled from their class.

baalberith have been given it good. by potential of regulation minors are to be puzzled with their mothers and dads cutting-edge, yet you probably did not point out how previous the meant juveniles have been. The age the place a baby is going from minor to grownup differences from state to state. In Texas you're an grownup on the age of 17. So if the police pulled 4 17 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous babies out then no, the mothers and dads did not could be notified.

I am not sure but I would be on p.oed SOB if they questioned my child with out me knowing.How can the say they will send them to a Juvenal Detention.The only thing you have to tell a cop is your name and social security number.If he keeps questioning let the officer know that you know your rights and ask for a lawyer before answering anything else.
Had to modify it

Yea, and they shouldn't be allowed to threaten them anyway. They should have the right to remain silent. I don't think theres a law against it though they did it to me while i was in school, but they are not required to answer them.
