How surprising it is to arrest someone for reporting that her seven years old innocent son had been physically attacked. A policeman in Texas, took a mother and the woman's daughter who was a teenager, into their custody after the woman contacted the police that her son who was just seven years, had been assaulted.
The incident had been recorded by a member of the family and was shared on the social media. The video showed that the mother and her teenage daughter were hit and taken to the police station. However, the online records have revealed that the mother and the girl have been liberated from the jail.
As The Guardian reports that the investigation is still being done, and the police officer, who's name has yet not been leaked, is kept on a confined duty. In the recording, the rude behavior of the officer is clear. The mother tried to tell the policeman that her son had been physically harmed after he had dropped a fragment of paper on the floor by their neighbor. The person who lived in their neighborhood was also present in the recording.
The police in return, replied unpleasantly, saying that she should've taught her son not to pollute. After this,
both the mother and the tween daughter were arrested. According to the SAT Press Release, Lee Merritt who is a lawyer had posted on Twitter that he had visited the two of them in jail.
The officer was also under investigation and had been given almost two days to prepare a reason why he
had arrested the woman and her girl. The video did not show the mother complaining that her son had been assaulted, instead showed the part in which the woman, out of frustration, raised her voice at the officer. Protests are also being done against what the officer did.
