I just got work done on my tire, they're breaking cars out where I live. So, the only reason why I took the gun out of my car is cuz I didn't want the car my car to get broken into and they get access to the gun or whatever. So, this morning I took him I put the gun in his lunch box to bring it outside instead of carrying it bare. I don't like I said, I don't carry purses.

Um That's important. I'm going to talk to her real quick. I'll be back. Even though no one wants to press charges, police are still required to follow the law. Here, parental rights collide head-on with legal responsibility. The bottom line is I could have just got my son and went home. And now y'all are arresting me. Y'all can't NTA? Ma'am, sir. I'm not the investigating officer. Um that decision was already made by our supervisor, so Who was the supervisor? Like y'all not even giving me the opportunity to make a phone call or anything. >> make a phone call, just this is not the time for the phone call. I'm at my son's school. My son is right in there.

Right in front of her child's school gate, she is handcuffed. And in that very moment, everything she was trying to protect begins to slip away. I look I'm I felt the heaviness of the lunch box, so I know it was definitely a real weapon, but I wanted to, you know, make sure. So, I received gloves, I put [clears throat] gloves on, um took it out to make sure um that it was um a real weapon. That's when I realized, oh yeah, it's definitely real, definitely loaded. I put it back, stuck it back in the lunch box, and then I immediately called her and told she needs to get to the school. Okay, and then what did she say? Uh I didn't tell her why I was calling her. I just said I need to see you at the school and it's urgent. She kept asking me why why why. Um I said I just need you here type thing. We hung up, she said I'm on the way. Um I'd say maybe 3 to 5 minutes later, she called back and that's when she realized why we were calling her and she was like, I'm so so sorry. >> that you guys were in when Which this guy here?

I have to I have to look Yeah, I I I understand, but I it's it's other, you know, policies in reference to because this is a school um that we have to go by. So, um I still have to, you know, obviously speak with um supervisors to make sure that I'm I'm following all rights and protocols because even though you might not want to prosecute, state says that I might have to. So, I have to go by what In Florida, child neglect is a third-degree felony, the lowest felony level, punishable by up to 5 years in prison and fines of up to approximately 5,000.
