[QUOTE="Star*, post: 392153, member: 4964"] My son stood on a street corner and told 2 other boys who were already on felony, burglary probation - THE COAST IS CLEAR - he never went into peoples homes. He did get involved with divvying up the loot. The other two boys were 13, 15 yo. My son was 15 - three months shy of 16. WE told the police - (like idiots and I'll tell you why we think we're idiots later) YES we found stuff in his room - here - take it. HERE - here is our son. Please, yes, absolutely take him to juvie. The officer told us that the first boy to come forward would be dealt with fairly - the others would not. BULL-HOCKEY. My son told on himself - NOT on the other two. My SON - was charged with 13 counts of conspiracy, and 3 counts of night time burglary. My SON was held without bond and charged as an ADULT facing 20 years in prison. He was fined over $8k, given 3 years probation, and is a convicted FELON at the age of 15. The other two? The kids who were ON probation for B&E? One got a night in Department of Juvenile Justice - The other? 2 weeks in Department of Juvenile Justice. The one that got 2 weeks in Department of Juvenile Justice? When he got out - had his buddys drive around and find my son and jumped out of a car, and shoved a pistol in my sons mouth, threatened him - and to tell the cop that arrested them? Useless. HE GOT A PROMOTION for busting one more felon. Our son had his life ruined because this cop lied. He said he would not be a felon, he said he'd go to court and talk to the judge - he said he'd help us.....HE LIED on all counts. He even arrested my son without mirandizing him - you think anyone is going to go against this man? Nope. Took him out of a psychiatric hospital. Lied about that too.

Dude isn't an angel but he didn't deserve that - and no - I haven't tried to bail him out other than having him do chores to pay for his probation. When he had three months left? He took off and now he's a fleeing felon. Just great. Can't tell him anything - THREE months left on 3 years - and he takes off - brilliant.
