Teen’s Sentenced Lengthened…

No CommentGuess why? She had a contraband cup.
The school district is accused of being discriminatory against her and other black children. The white judge also gave a 14 year old white girl probation after burning down her family’s home. However, Creola, her mother did not seem to keen on the idea of plea bargains. The offer was a guilty plea on a misdemeanor charge would land her in probation. The judge gave Creola a second chance to manage Shaquanda by home-supervised probation but Creola refused. This caused the judge to sentence Shaquanda to one year in a detention facility.
Pretty sad. Come on school district do not discriminate. I however think the judge was correct here because he gave the mother two choices, even one after being guilty to have her daughter come out without jail time. However, the school district is at fault as it seems to be discriminating based on prior offenses. Come on a 5 day suspension would have done here. What about security cameras?
