Arrest Of 9YO Brings Ap-hollow-gy
The Kootenai County prosecutor on Monday issued an apology for last week's arrest of a 9-year-old Post Falls boy. The warrant stemmed from the child allegedly stealing a pack of gum at a local grocery store. The warrant was issued after the child missed two court appearances. "After reviewing the file today, I have concluded that my office's request to have an arrest warrant issued was a mistake under the circumstances," Kootenai County Prosecutor Barry McHugh wrote in a statement. "At least one other viable option existed, which was to seek a court-ordered child protection investigation"/Brian Walker, Coeur d'Alene Press. More here.
