Trayvon Martin had no arrest record or disciplinary action for violence as a student in North Miami's Krop High School.
"no ... disciplinary action for violence" -- but disciplinary action nonetheless for other non-violent infractions on three separate occasions that this time amounted to a 10 day suspension.
The fact that school officials seized rings, jewelry, and watch in his backpack indicates that they didn't believe his story that they were gifts but believed them to have been stolen. Were they stolen from the apartment complex????
The deposition of the school officials should be interesting, especially of the bus driver that he supposedly punched out.
Mr. Martin had been suspended from school three times this school year. The final suspension was for ten days. Ten days? Come to think of it, I have never heard of a TEN DAY suspension from school. Kicked out of school for two full weeks of classes?
I have no idea how a borderline student is supposed to keep up with his studies, or to improve his life in any way, while staying out of any contact with school for such a long period of time. The only possible benefit, it seems to me, is to keep his bad influence away from the other students.
