The incident happened on Sept. 18 at Westridge Middle School in Overland Park, about 13 miles south of Kansas City, after administrators were alerted to a potential threat made by a 13-year-old student, police said in a news release.

According to the Kansas City Star, the girl was having a discussion with a classmate who asked if she could kill five people in the room, who would they be. The girl responded by allegedly making a finger gun and pointing it at four students and then pointing it at herself, the outlet reported.

More over reaction. A good lawyer should be able to get this resolved, but it's a shame it has to get to that point.

At what cost ?

If you are forced to spend tens of thousands of dollars to defend yourself before "winning", how carefully will you step in the future to avoid another "win" like that.

The process is the punishment, the left doesn't even care if they win.

The arrest is part of the punishment game that goes on. Sort of a legal malpractice game on the party iniating the complaint and supported by the arresting officer. Red Flag law light if you will.

Can't believe we came to the same conclusion at the same time.

It's an obvious conclusion to anyone who actually thinks through the ramifications of things.

Unfortunately that isn't so common anymore (actually thinking through things).

Agreed, they are doing this at the expense of the kid and her parents to "deter" anything "gun" related in the future.

Ill bet its a white kid.

You should be able to sue for your lawyer bills, time and your kids mental stress.

They can sue for false arrest and will win . Pointing a finger is not a crime. The officer who arrested a kid should be sued too.

Im surprised the cops didn't race to her parents home and confiscate all their firearms, then check all the neighbors homes for firearms as well~~~~ just in case
