[QUOTE="DDD, post: 425526, member: 35"] Hooray. At least I got one through. I can't emphasize how strongly I feel about this issue. We had the same type of "targeting" by a couple of local cops and it had terrible results. Locally they make a major effort to isolate the teen and then push them to "sign this paper and you can go home". Most teens are eager to get home...sign and then later find out that have confessed. If you have any funds seek out a private attorney. (Yes, I know about small town attorneys and the police department, sigh!) Do a mental review of the contacts you made with the State police. Was there anyone who seemed sympathetic who "might" guide you to a pro bono attorney? Do make sure you have a journal of the incidents. If you don't have one, gather all the notes you may have taken and use that to recreate a journal. It's hard to protect your chld from the system. Sometimes it is impossible. Give it your best shot. I'm rooting for you and your son. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
