Do be clear, it doesn't sound like she was actually arrested or actually detained at any point. The judge said he intended having her put on jail clothes and handcuffs to frighten her into taking court seriously, like a "life lesson" thing. It sounds like she mouthed off at him after he asked her to pay attention. His goal was to "scare her straight," but he definitely should not have tried to reach her this way
Edit: I guess I'm being downvoted by people who think this judge did the right thing? Geez
First sentence in the article. This is called being detained.
The judge is definitely am example of "if you have a hammer, then everything looks like a nail".
You are being downvoted because you are wrong. Don't try to spin it as if anyone thinks this was the right thing to do. It sounds EXACTLY like she was detained
If what you say is true, I'm on the judges side on this one. shrug In the end nothing outrageous happened.
The entire situation is outrageous. A child should not be handcuffed and forced to put on other clothes for falling asleep. Absolutely absurd
