Six year old handcuffed and arrested for assault and battery. Opinions?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) April 30th, 2012

There is no law that discriminates against age in handcuffing a person under arrest. This may be a hard pill to swallow, but thier age can be age 6 or 99, under arrest and will be handcuffed. This incident arrived from a 6 year old arrest that occured at Lumbley Kindergarten in Indiana. This child had kicked and bitten a school official on two different occasions and bit another child. His parents seemed indifferent, so the handcuffed arrest.
