"The officer was just saying, 'I don't care, I don't care,'" Guadalupe Cuevas said in Spanish. "He told my nephew he didn't speak his kind of English." The police report said Green read Maribel her Miranda rights twice, in English. The report also lists the girl's emotional state as "apologetic" and "hysterical."

A child being treated this way by her parents would be considered abuse by many of us. Why is it not called that in this case?

Dummy

The cops have discretion, heck, the supremes say they don't even have to enforce protective orders.

They can issue warnings, they can gather info and turn it over to a DA, they can just walk away.

What they shouldn't do, is drag her to the ground, dig their knees in her back and cuff her so tightly that her wrists are still discolored the next day, and charge her with ADW!

She was an 11 yr old girl defending herself and other smaller children in her charge against a gang of bullies.

And IRT the miranda, one can't give consent (including the mom and daughter) if one can't understand the language.

Don't have to enforce protective orders??? Don't think I've heard that one? Got a link to the case.

The Supreme Court ruled Monday that police cannot be sued for how they enforce restraining orders

the case of a Colorado woman whose three daughters were murdered by her estranged husband after he violated a restraining order and abducted the girls.

Jessica Gonzales made five telephone calls and a personal visit to the Castle Rock Police Department over an eight-hour period urging police to find the girls immediately and arrest her husband, Simon Gonzales. Police declined to act, suggesting she wait until her husband brought the girls home.

Before it was cops don't have to enforce protective orders, now it's they can't be sued. Well there's a slight difference there.

Gang? Did someone say Gang? Is this a gang neighborhood? Perhaps that would explain the initial response.

I said gang, you asked if it was a gang neighborhood, and said that's why the would arrest a little girl and let the gang of boys who admitted starting it go.

The cops were sued for not enforcing an order of protection. They didn't enforce the order, they were sued and the Supremes said cops couldn't be sued for not doing their jobs.

It's obvious why you make personal attacks and engage in prevarication; you don't have the facts or logic to make your arguments.

It's impossible to enforce an order when you can't find the person the order was issued to.

Keep ranting pat, everytime you endorse this type of situation, or cops killing babies as long as they get the father, or tasering people to death, you just help others understand my point of view.

I see things differently than you, I will put my best interpretation forward.

If you have another point of view, with facts and links, state it. But stop just personally attacking me to the detriment of reasoned discourse and the site.

Three men arrested in connection with this week's stabbings outside Dodger Stadium won't face prosecution, officials said. Four men suffered stab wounds as private security guards hired by the Dodgers' merchandising vendor fought Sunday night with men that police said were selling unlicensed goods.

A girl surrounded by boys WHO ARE ASSAULTING HER has a right to fight back, and if in her fear she escalates the violence, honest cops will almost always look the other way. There's more to this story than has met the print.
