Arrested for Farting?

[cjjtulsa]

My God - good thing Kansas didn't have policies like this, else I'd still be in the Big House.

Students get in trouble for such minor offenses as wearing the wrong color socks, flatulence in class, and swearing.

Nothing new...

Anybody remember the "Cash for Kids" scandal? Two judges went to prison. Many Kids there were locked up for school related offenses like the girl sentenced to 3 months in juvie for a myspace post making fun of her principal.

Kids are being arrested for some really questionable reasons.

Busted for burping.

[A seventh-grade Cleveland Middle School boy last May was handcuffed by a city police officer, arrested and taken from school to the Juvenile Detention Center after he “burped audibly” while he was in his P.E. class, according to a civil rights lawsuit filed Wednesday.

He was transported without his parents being notified, the suit said.]

And schools are doing some really questionable things also.

Pennsylvania schools spying on students using laptop webcams, claims lawsuit

http://www.computerworld.com/s/arti..._students_using_laptop_webcams_claims_lawsuit

Did school use laptops to spy on students? Feds won't press charges.

[“We have not found evidence that would establish beyond a reasonable doubt that anyone involved had criminal intent,” Mr. Memeger said.

The government began the investigation after revelations in February that school officials were monitoring students through the web camera on their school-supplied laptops. The officials also had the ability to monitor students by taking multiple screenshots of the content on the student’s computer screen.]

12-year-old sues school district over Facebook profile search

[the Minnewaska school district in Minnesota stands accused of coercing a 12-year-old girl into giving up her Facebook and e-mail passwords, so that a school could spy with their little eye.

CNN reports that she was also twice punished for things she wrote on Facebook.

What seems even more pulsating is that the court papers state that she was called to a meeting at which a school counselor and the deputy sheriff were present.

It was at this meeting that she was allegedly "interrogated" and surrendered the passwords to her Facebook and e-mail accounts.

And, no, her mother had allegedly not consented to the search.]
