Ten year old girl is acting up on a school bus, is handcuffed by a police officer, and now the mom is suing for a million dollars because her daughter "can't ever look and a police officer the same again and is scared of them."
http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/us/2008/0....handcuffed.cnn Kid probably deserved it. Now, the 5 year old they talk about at the end of the video... I don't know about that one. Fiver years old and they can't think of another way to deescalate the situation besides handcuffing the kid to a chair? That's kind of strange. Thoughts on handcuffing young children? |
