View Full Version : **** sake ... Six-year-old girl arrested at Florida school
XySuFFW3Qj0
Police bodycam footage released on 25 February has captured the moment a visibly distressed child was arrested at her school in Orlando, Florida in September 2019.
The six-year-old girl was restrained with zip ties and escorted to a waiting police car after misbehaving in class.
Lawyers for her family at Smith and Eulo Law Firm told the BBC that the family chose to release the footage because they wanted to show how the arrest unfolded.
The person whose bodycam captured the ordeal was fired after an internal investigation by the Orlando Police Department. Officer Dennis Turner had not followed the correct protocol, which states that a police officer must have their supervisor's approval to arrest any child under the age of 12.

****ing strange that school dealt with a misbehaving child by calling the police on her and probably traumatising her

nasty little brat hitting staff. I hope she learned a lesson, what must her parent/s be like is any ones guess :confused:
who would be a policeman having now to deal with unruly violent children?
Sounds like this pig has previous of being a c u next tuesday.
Thankfully, he's got his cards now.
I'm sure this little girl will do well out of this. Not only does she have an anecdote to tell, but I reckon people will send her a few bob.

Ask american police
Who got sacked though ?
The officer attached to the school who authorised the arrest or the guy who zip tied her hands together ..
Also who was the guy at the end of the clip bragging about 20,000 arrests .. youngest being 7 until this case ?

says something about the lackings of discipline of that school, i mean many other schools can handle 6 year olds who misbehave
and honestly you'd think some would call the parents first before calling police
:unsure:
When Alfred Hitchcock was a child (5 or 6 years old) his father sent him down to the Police station with a note. When he gave the note to the Policeman at the desk, the Policeman put young Alfred into a Police cell and left him in there for five minutes. When he let him out, he told young Alfred "this is what happens to naughty boys" from that day on, Alfred Hitchcock had a fear of Policemen.
It was Alfred's fathers way of teaching young Alfred not to misbehave.

This will be controversial but other than the unnecessary arresting and removal of the child I think calling the police to a child who cannot be controlled is good. Sometimes a visual works wonders.
Children should not be allowed to attack teachers at all.

It's no surprise to see that she's a black child. People in the US love to call the police on black people for little to no reason and the police just love to use unreasonable force on them. Sticking a a six year old in a police car for misbehaving is ridiculous and I'm glad the officer got sacked, I hope the parents sued the **** out of the school.

This kind of thing is always a good example of bad parenting.
Teaching children to fear the police is really dumb typically although given the american police's habbits of killing minorities for funsies, it's understandable.

They may have and the parents were unavailable. The sad thing is if the teacher had even softly held the child and told them no the parents are likely to kick off about it.
There was a video a while ago a man filmed of his wife confronting a teacher who their child had said hit him, she warned the poor teacher with violence and then not long after it came out the kid had flat out lied.

The US police have a habit of unreasonable force towards black people. it's rare to go a for long stretches of time without hearing about how a police officer killed a black person for existing.

I don't think it's bad parenting to make children scared of the police either. My mum and Nan used to say the police were coming when I was being naughty and I'd crap myself because I was being naughty, if they said it when I was playing innocently I had nothing to fear.

This is just awful,she's 6 years old ffs she's going to be traumatised after this. It's a bit pathetic to call the police. That poor girl was really scared.

This is twilight zone stuff isn't it...the police arresting little girls for having a paddy?
Thank goodness it was sorted before they shot her!!
The parents should have been called and then they may have suggested the hitchcock method for her punishment..that would have been what I would have done if I was her parent.

That's what should have happened rather than wasting the police's time and traumatising the girl. She's 6 years old and doesn't really understand what's right and what's wrong.
Teachers have as much responsibility to instill good behaviour in young children as much as the childrens parents. To palm them off on the police when I'm sure the police have far better things to be doing is sooooo questionable. I understand tough teachings and what not but to actually pull the kid out of school and CUFF them (idgaf if they used the word "tie", it was a cuffing) is really irresponsible on the school and police officers part.
In order to teach a kid right from wrong you need to relay that information in a positive and productive way. This child might escape this situation without any lasting traumas but personally, I'd be worried that it would instill a really negative, bitter outlook on the world which would have further consequences for her and take her down the wrong path.
She shouldn't have hit her teacher but this punishment proves nothing besides the ineptitude of the teachers at this school.
Poor Alfred spent the rest of his life surrounded by horrors
Thank you Alfreds's dad, for all those brilliant films...:hee:

Plus zip-tying her hands together is barbaric given she’s six !

It was probably a shock tactic to stop her being naughty,but still its a blinking harsh punishment for a 6 year old, but kind of agree with Amy Jade.

I agree...but it could backfire and she will hate the police forever :shrug:
The girl was processed at a county juvenile center, where her mugshot and fingerprints were taken. She even had to stand on a stool so her booking photo could be taken, her grandmother said.
In an unrelated incident that same day, Turner also arrested a 6-year-old boy at the school for misdemeanor battery. The boy was released before being processed

Most likely an aggressive parent, mum I think. Need to get social services involved and remove child from the school.

Also ... in the clip the school staff tried to calm her down by telling her that her grandmother would pick her up afterwards..
We just don’t know the girls backstory she may not even have parents around for whatever reason

Jesus, at 6 a child still can't fully control their emotions and so can lash out. The teachers are **** if they do not know how to safely restrain and calm an over emotional child.
Ridiculous course of action to take.

Much is being made of this event all over the world thanks to the WWW. Meanwhile children are being murdered daily, they're going missing, being abused, being abandoned, being attacked by those who are supposed to love and protect them.... and I don't even mean in war zones.
Was this kid's treatment over the top? Yes, it probably was. But if it's the worst thing that kid ever has happen to her, she'll be very lucky. And the whole world doesn't need to know. I'd be interested to know how much the school/police settle with the family for though.

Years ago teachers used to cane pupils and hit them over the head with rulers. All very acceptable in those days. :nono:
When my sister was a toddler, she had a habit of biting people, so one day my mother bit her back and she never bit anyone again. :hee:

I was caned at primary school ( 60’s) . .. they used to hit your non writing hand .
At high school ( in the 70’s) teachers were allowed to whack you on the head or back with text books and throw wooden board cleaners at you for doing next to nothing .
The actual punishment was getting your backside whacked with a slipper ( or big plimsole ) .. it absolutely wrecked and you couldn’t sit down fir about 20 minutes due to the pain !!

Abuse... you are all describing abuse teachers hitting, throwing things or beating with implements ... its just abuse.
What regressive thinking to yearn for those times.
I was never hit but I do remember one lad who was always scruffy and inattentive he was sent out and hit, he came back crying, he was ashamed we saw him cry and it broke my heart :(

That's like my story kizzy.
Primary 7. David got 3 of the belt of an athletic 40 yr old man for having dirty hands, In front of the class as well.
Worst thing is...David was a slow kid...a friend I protected all the way through school because of that incident. .
I met up with him out of the blue in a pub a couple of years ago and he seems to have had a happy life.
I liked Mr Campbell as well up until then...looking back though he did manage to get a young lad an interview with David Steele on our annual london trip for p7s that year.
I ain't seen that lad since high school.
