When did schools start using the court system instead of just calling the parents? Whoever took the report should have said, no, this isn’t an issue for the police or the courts. There are multiple failures here. Hopefully, the prosecutor’s office will say, “You gotta be kidding. Get outahere!” The way it works here is, the sheriff’s office or the local cops write up a case and take it to the county attorney. The county attorney’s office says whether they’ll prosecute. Then it gets set for court.
On a side note, if it does go to court it is idiotic to go into a courtroom without an attorney. I don’t care how poor you are, mortgage your house if you have to. Judges can be utterly capricious and they operate without any supervision. The outcome can be ridiculously out of step with the “offense.”
Pinellas County? Isn’t that the same county whose proud judge murdered Terri Schiavo?
So, first we kill off the sick Christians, then we start on the kids.
