Oh for fuck's sake Texas has hit a new low

[charisstoma]

A 14 year old brought a digital clock he made to show his 1st period engineering teacher.
3 day suspension from school for bringing hoax bomb to school.
14 Year old was by police without a lawyer, parent, and to hear the kid no child protective services person present.

Police decided to drop the charges against him but not before they fingerprinted, mug shot and interrogated him with only the police there with him and per the CBS news broadcasted interview with Irving Police Chief, Larry Boyd, the student was uncooperative in his answers when they asked him what it was and per the televised interview with the Police Chief he responded with, 'it's a clock'.


What the hell was the kid supposed to say other than what the damned thing was? What would any 14 year old say?
Don't they have a bomb squad to look at it before processing the kid?
