Dougherty County School Police are investigating a complaint of excessive force against a sixth grade girl arrested for protesting having her picture taken.
Her father shows scratches on 11-year-old Treneashe Graddy's neck and back. She says she was thrown to the ground and arrested at Southside Middle School yesterday.
When school officials tried to take her picture for school identification, she refused because her hair was not fixed.
The girl was charged with disorderly conduct, obstruction of an officer, and disrupting school.

If she would have done what she was told to do there would not have been a problem. Nothing was ask of her that was immoral, illegal, or out of the normal activities of the school situation.
She caused this situation herself. It seems to me that the spoiled brat was disobedient, uncontrollable, and then resisted Law Enforcement. She should have been arrested for assaulting the officer.

Lots of folks don't like being told what to do by government officials.
Sounds like the cops over-reacted.

“She should have been arrested for assaulting the officer.”
??? She;’s 11 years old. Physical abuse of an 11 yr old is a crime. Period. I hope the parents sue the pants off of everyone involved. If anyone ever touched my 11 year old they would spend the rest of their lives wishing they hadn’t. A child is a child. There are constructive ways to teach manners and encourage growth.

Pretty vain for an 11 year old.

Pretty vain for an 11 year old.Not really. Depends on the 11-year-old girl/woman. Some 11-year-olds look and act like 16-year-olds.

Where in the article does it say she assaulted the officer? She refused to have her picture taken, the officer put her hand around her neck, threw her to the ground, put her knee in her back, and cuffed her. Seems like the officer overreacted.
They should have taken her to the principal’s office and let the administration handle it but I guess they don’t do that anymore. It’s easier to call the cops.

Have you ever lived with an eleven year old? Around 10 or 11 it starts and gets worse in teenagers, and then slowly subides as they mature (if they mature.)
The "it" I speak of is the intense scrutiny of every personal attribute to judgement, and the magnification of every perceived short coming.
This magnification of flaws can erupt into awful actions of sobbing and screaming. Once highlighted our 15 yr. olds hair (2d time-she loved the first) and she perceived it as too much, screeched about being ruined, not showing her face in school, cried, raved, pouted. Next day she went to school sulled up, and came home bouncing and smiling that afternoon--her friends "looveed" her hair.
Yeah! The police overdid it.

I agree; this is prime time for hormones to start kicking in, but the child is unable to cope and needs some latitude to make an adjustment. She could have been sent somewhere to calm down, like the principal’s office; but sounds like this was a tough woman cop, probably from the same social background, who was not too bright. Where’s the love, people?

There are constructive ways to teach manners and encourage growth. True and her parents have failed in everyone of them. Maybe she needs a new set!!
