A MOTHER HAS FILMED HER 10-YEAR-OLD SON BEING
ARRESTED AT SCHOOL.
HER SON
OFFERS FROM AUTISM.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT VIDEO SHE UPLOADED.
>> HE HAS THE SAME RIGHTS AS AN ADULT.
>> WE HAVE A WARRANT.
>> I DON'T WANT TO BE TOUCHED.
>> HE DOESN'T HAVE TO BE TOLD.
>> YOU ARE SO FUCKING DUMB MAMA.
>>YES IT IS, AND I WILL GET A LAWYER AND WE WILL TAKE CARE OF
THIS.
THIS IS FOR SOMETHING FROM
MONTHS AGO WE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT.
>> I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS GOING TO GET ARRESTED LIKE THIS.
>> NEITHER DID I, WE CAME IN FOR TESTING.
>> I DON'T WANT TO BE TOUCHED.
>>CAN I RIDE WITH HIM?
SO YOU REALLY CAN'T TELL ME AS A
PARENT?
I KNOW YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON, CAN YOU TELL ME
WHAT'S GOING ON OR HAVE ANY PAPERWORK YOU CAN SHOW ME?
EXCUSE ME, DO YOU HAVE ANY
PAPERWORK OR ANYTHING YOU CAN SAY TO ME.
>>I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON.
>> HE HAS AUTISM, HE IS SCARED AND IS 10 YEARS OLD.
>> I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.
NO.
IT'S ALL THEIR FAULT.
>> KNOW HE'S NOT GOING TO BE OKAY.
YOU ARE BRINGING HIM TO
THE JAIL?
>>THIS HAPPENED IN OKEECHOBEE FLORIDA.
THE CHILD'S NAME IS
JOHN HAGOOD.
HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED, HE WAS ACCUSED IN
OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR OF
ASSAULTING HIS TEACHER.
KICKING HER AND PUNCHING HER LEAVING
MARKS.
AFTER THAT HE STAYED AWAY FROM SCHOOL.
IT WASN'T UNTIL
WEDNESDAY WHERE HE WENT BACK WHEN THE SHERIFF WAS THERE AND
THEY SHOWED UP SURVEY WARRANTS TO HIM.
THE MOTHER MAINTAINS SHE
KNEW NOTHING ABOUT GOT THE
SHERIFF'S OFFICE IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE STATE ATTORNEY STATED
THEY ALSO DID NOT KNOW THE CHILD
HAD AUTISM.
THE SCHOOL SAYS THAT THEY DO.
THE MOTHER SAYS THIS IS
A NATIONWIDE PROBLEM.
THERE YOU HAVE IT?
>> THIS IS HEARTBREAKING ON SO MANY ACCOUNTS.
EVEN IF HE DIDN'T
HAVE AUTISM, DON'T ARREST
10-YEAR-OLDS.
SO HE KICKED THE TEACHER, THAT IS BAD AND YOU
SHOULD GET SUSPENDED DEFINITELY.
THEY SHOULD CONSIDER EXPELLING
THE KID.
HE HAS AUTISM SO YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE UNDERSTANDING
AND HELP HIM.
INSTEAD THEY CHARGE HIM WITH A THIRD-DEGREE
FELONY.
I DON'T KNOW, IS IT ME?
I REMEMBER SOMETIMES THINGS
WOULD HAPPEN AND KIDS WOULD SOMETIMES HIT A TEACHER.
THEY
WOULD NEVER GET ARRESTED.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN THIS
COUNTRY?
WE HAVE BECOME MONSTROUS.
IF YOU ARE COPS, HOW
CAN YOU NOT CALL INTO THE
HEADQUARTERS AND SAY I HEAR YOU, CAN WE DOUBLE CHECK ON THIS?
>> I WAS READING FURTHER AND THEY SAID ñ THE SCHOOL SAID THEY
WOULD NOT INVITE SOMEONE TO ONE OF THEIR CAMPUSES FOR THE SOLE
PURPOSES OF ARREST.
BUT HE WAS THERE JUST FOR TESTING JUST THAT
DAY.
THIS IS TERRIBLE.
THIS IS GOING TO HAVE LASTING EFFECTS ON
HIM FOR SURE.
>> I LOOKED AT THE SCHOOL'S WEBSITE AND THE MISSION
STATEMENT SAID THAT WHEN THE CHILD IS ABLE TO RETURN TO
SCHOOL ñ IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A SCHOOL EQUIPPED TO DO THAT.
I
ALSO DID RESEARCH ON AUTISM
SPEAKS.
IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN WHO HAVE AUTISM YOU HAVE LEGAL
RIGHTS ACCORDING TO THE IDEA.
THERE IS OPTIONS FOR YOU AND IT
SEEMS WHEN YOU LOOK AT ALL THE EVENTS THAT TRANSPIRED OVER THE
COURSE OF THIS VIDEO AND THAT
WHOLE DAY IT'S LIKE NO ONE WAS COMMUNICATING WITH EACH OTHER SO
THERE WAS A GIANT BREAKDOWN.
IT SEEMS LIKE THERE WAS A BREAKDOWN
IN THAT SYSTEM OF COMMUNICATION.
THE SCHOOL WHICH SHOULD BE THERE
TO TAKE CARE OF A CHILD WITH
SPECIAL NEEDS DID NOT.
>>I AM WITH KIM'S HAIR.
HE KICKS THE TEACHER AND GETS
HOMESCHOOLED.
THIS IS THE ONE DAY HE COMES TO SCHOOL AND THEY
HAPPEN TO ARREST HIM THAT ONE DAY?
THE SECOND PART OF THAT IS
EVEN MORE DISTURBING WHICH IS
THAT YOU KNOW WHERE HE LIVES, YOU CAN GO AND GET HIM ANY DAY.
IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WANTED TO MAKE AN EXAMPLE OUT OF HIM. AND
THEY KNOW THE KID IS AUTISTIC.
THE COPS MAY NOT KNOW, BUT THE
SCHOOL DOES.
>> WHAT'S FRUSTRATING IS THE SERIES OF EVENTS THAT NIGHT, HE
GOT ARRESTED AND WAS HELD
OVERNIGHT.
AND THEN THEY RELEASED HIM TO GO HOME AGAIN
WHY DID THEY ARREST HIM IN THE
FIRST PLACE?
JUST GO TO THE CHILD HOUSE AND SAY WE ARE GOING
TO GO FORWARD WITH CHARGES.
AT THE END OF THE DAY HE WAS BACK
HOME DOING WHAT HE HAD BEEN DOING TO AVOID THE SCHOOL IN THE
FIRST PLACE.
HE ONLY SHOWED UP
FOR MANDATORY TESTING.
HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE ACCESS TO ñ IF
HE'S NOT BEING MAINSTREAMED EFFECTIVELY MAYBE IT IS BEST TO
HAVE HIM TAKE THOSE TESTS AT HOME.
HE IS A CHILD WITH SPECIAL NEEDS.
IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WERE BEING IGNORED.
>> THERE IS NO REASON WHY YOU CAN'T JUST SERVE HIM A WARRANT
AT HOME.
YOU KNOW WHO THEY DO THAT WITH?
THEY DON'T GET LED
AWAY IN HANDCUFFS.
IF I AM A TEACHER AND TEACHERS HAVE A
SUPERHARD JOB, AND WE CELEBRATE TEACHERS HERE ALL THE TIME, BUT
IF I AM A TEACHER AND A 10-YEAR-OLD KICKS ME I'M NOT
GOING TO CHARGE HIM WITH A
FELONY.
>>HE WASN'T BEING DISRUPTIVE AT THE TIME IS THE THING.
YOU
RESTRAIN SOMEONE WHEN THEY NEED
TO BE RESTRAINED.
I GET IT, CHILDREN WITH AUTISM THEY DON'T
TAKE SOCIAL CUES THE WAY PEOPLE WITHOUT AUTISM DO.
THEY NEED TO
BE NICE ABOUT THAT AND TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION.
IT'S ALSO WEIRD WHEN I SEE A VIDEO LIKE THIS AND NO ONE IS
GETTING BEATEN UP I'M ALWAYS LIKE THANK GOODNESS.
>> THE MOM WAS SHOCKINGLY CALM.
I GUARANTEE YOU I WOULD NOT HAVE
BEEN THAT CALM.
AND THEN THE WHOLE FAMILY IS
IN TROUBLE.
