    There’s not enough information supplied.

      There’s not enough information supplied.

      Business Insider has a substantial paywall version. It’s an essay from Brittany Patterson read to a Jane Ridley, verified by Business Insider.

      It’s much more detailed and less flowery than Reason.

      Mother of 4

      Soren (tween in question) is homeschooled

      Had to take another 1/4 to the doctor

      Soren could not be found so they left him, they have 16 acres, she assumed he was outside

      She took 1/4 to the doctor

      Soren got bored and went to talk to a friend’s grandmother that worked at a gas station, she wasn’t there, he went to the Dollar Store, police brought him home.

      Was stopped by a concerned neighbor, he ignored her and kept walking. She called the cops.

      Deputy hauled her off, booked her and locked her up under arrest on a charge of wreckless conduct. Out on bail.

      wreckless conduct: Daring or bold, but also irresponsible Willfully disregarding rules, norms, or social conventions Showing a lack of concern for consequences or potential harm to others

      The deputy said it wasn’t safe because it was a dangerous road. She said all kinds of things could have happened, including being kidnapped.

      30 MPH road

      Maybe he was doing something he REALLY shouldn’t have been doing.

      Maybe they had it out for her for truancy vs homeschooling

      Maybe she REALLY pissed in the deputy’s Wheaties,

      Maybe it’s not the first time?

      Smalltown shenanigans, police overreach, nanny state neighbors are friends with the cops.

      Take your pick; it might make a nice bingo card.
