When questioned by Judge Howard about her refusal to submit to being photographed and fingerprinted Mrs. O'Dell informed him she believes a person is innocent until proven guilty and the procedure violates her rights.

I guess she cares more about clean fingers than her kids. It only takes one nut to give all homeschoolers a black eye.

I agree that she should have allowed them to process her. Still, it seems a little unclear about why they arrested her in the first place. If a couple armed police came to my house to take my kids into custody, I don't know if I would calmly go off with them and allow my kids to be taken to juvenile hall or social services or whatever. I just can't say one way or the other -- but we don't know the whole story, except that in it, nowhere was she accused of physically abusing her children. Short of physical abuse, I give parents total leeway in how they raise their children.

How many government bootlickers does it take to give conservatives a bad name?

I remember a thread about this O'Dell woman from sometime earlier in the summer. As I recall, she is barely literate, practically homeless, earning very little income...and is trying to homeschool her kids. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Sorry to say AppyPappy but you are a moron by your statement, and don't have a clue about the subject

And it only takes one Jack Booted (Moron) Thug that has no regard for procedure, because he is the law, to give all LEOs a black eye.

Oh, we never even knew that you homeschooled.

The Law states that you will assume the innocence of the individual until it is proven to the contrary.

You obviously have no use for the Law.
