Kids' arrest outrages Murfreesboro community
Jessica Bliss, jbliss@tennessean.com1 day agoFacebookTwitterGoogle Plusmore
Police handcuffed multiple students, ages 6 to 11, at a public elementary school in Murfreesboro on Friday, inspiring public outcry and adding fuel to already heightened tensions between law enforcement and communities of color nationwide.
The arrests at Hobgood Elementary School occurred after the students were accused of not stopping a fight that happened several days earlier off campus. A juvenile center later released the students, but local community members now call for action — police review of the incident and community conversation — and social justice experts across the country use words such as "startling" and "flabbergasted" in response to actions in the case.

[quote]It remains unclear exactly how many children were arrested. State law prohibits the release of juvenile law enforcement records, and police have denied a media request for the information. Murfreesboro police didn't say what state law the kids violated, but parents of several of the arrested children say the kids were charged with "criminal responsibility for conduct of another," which according to Tennessee criminal offense code includes incidents when a "person fails to make a reasonable effort to prevent" an offense.

Pathetic.

If that's a crime, I'm probably looking at a hefty sentence. Sorry I'm not Batman.

Too bad they don't release the names so we could see how many moms don't have the same last name as their children. However, I'm sure it's the systems fault....

Because that's relevant to the arrest of 6 year olds how?

It's relevant bc these moms will be outraged by an hour of detainment from police but see no problem with generational neglect of family structure and responsibility.

I was suspended in junior high for not stopping a locker room fight and not telling the teacher about said fight.

Except that the father of one of the kids who was interviewed was married to the mother. Try again .
And let's not pretend that soccer moms from the country club of Louisiana would not be outraged as well if there's a six-year-old child was arrested for watching a fight

Well, there's at least one. That's a good start, Freaux. Let's make it popular in the community.
