The tail really does wag the dog these days.

Maybe the mom should take a leave of absence from work, freeze all accounts and utilities, lock the house up and take a 93 day vacation on the state, leaving the little bitch to fend for herself. And if she tries to enter the house, have someone report it as a burglary.

How did the prosecutor find out about the "theft?"

This is just an ex-husband being a POS.

I am so damned glad my kids are grown. No way would I want to be a parent in this country now.

The ex-husband/father was behind this. The prosecutor should have exercised common sense and refused to file charges, but common sense seems to be in short supply these days.
To: rickmichaels
When you pay for food, school, clothes and smartphone for the kid, you have the right to take the phone.
This is nothing more than the left cutting the bonds of parent and child.

I'm betting dad does. That is probably why he called the cops. Still a very childish thing to do and undermines the mother. the judge and DA in this case have no business being involved in the legal system.

I read about this story this morning. Her child was not behind it but her ex husband.

Some law enforcement and prosecutors should be fired.

From another article...
"...in April, May took away the girl’s iPhone 6 in April. “I was just being a mom, a concerned parent, and disciplining my daughter,” she said.
But others disagreed. WOOD reported that May got arrested on a misdemeanor larceny charge after she confiscated the device.
A judge also leveled another charge against her, namely larceny by conversion. Each charge carried a maximum sentence of 93 days in jail, meaning that May faced 186 in the joint, more than half a year.
How in the world did that happen? Well, it turned out that the county didn’t have a problem with May taking her daughter’s phone in and of itself.
Rather, her ex-husband contracted the authorities and said that the phone actually belonged to him. Suddenly parental tough love had turned into theft.

She is a mimor child. Parents were paying the phone service bills. Probably bought the phone as well. Or gave her the money to buy it.
