The parents of the 9-year-old who was arrested in August after fighting another student and striking a teacher are speaking out. Cops were called after fourth grader Devin Shepherd got into a fight with a classmate during recess at Needham Elementary School in Franklin, Ind. When a teacher intervened, Devin hit the teacher. The boy’s father recorded the heartbreaking scene. βJust chill out buddy. You’re leaving with me. I promise you,β the father told his son as he was being arrested. #InsideEdition
Bro the kid was standing up for himself why is the bully not punished that’s messed up
That’s how freaked up this country is right now in the old days nothing would have happened
what did the bully het lets overlook the normal people not the autistic boy this world is so screwed up
Disgusting, they should be arresting the bully to teach him or her a lesson about bullying and how wrong it can be, and what bullying can end up doing to those whom donβt deserve it like suicide.. The teacher should also be fired and blacklisted from working as a teacher or at a school or with children to begin with!
This happens nowhere else in the western world. America isn’t the greatest country in the world. Pull your head out of your asses.
They better sue that school and get him out of there. Fing teacher.
As an autistic person myself I have no sympathy for the little bastard. He hit the damn teacher for God’s sakes, he should have to face the consequences for his actions.
This is retarded, what were they thinking
Bastard Cops.
I do not get it why did other kid not get arrested this is what happens when your playing football and you argue with your coach
Glad the dad understood his son wasn’t at fault. Poor kid…
I literally thought this was just a joke and the dad set it up. I think there could been a better punishment then this kind of trauma for a kid with autism. Even I, a person who supports corporate punishment, knows this is too far.
He’s only 9 years old and he’s autistic! Why the hell he needs to be arrested?! This has gone way too far! The teacher deserved to be fired not now what it had done! Arresting this younger student with autism is a violation against human rights! This isn’t the oldest century anymore and people should know that but then they started to continue on being such incredibly thoughtless monsters! This is injustice, irresponsible and ablest! I too am a person with special needs who was highly offended watching this was so traumatizing, heartless and sickening! Just because he is autistic doesn’t really mean it is his fault! Please release the boy now!!π‘
real
Both him and the bully should have spent a night in a holding cell, give them a taste of what’s to come if they don’t smarten up.
Bet that kid was traumatized after this happened. So sad how people with Autism get treated now and days.
Thats why cops r pigsβ¦
When you decide to stand up for yourself but get yourself more on trouble
I would switch places with the boy if i could.
I hope there were repercussions to this. It’s been 4 years but I never seen anything about it
yo how is the dad talking so calm
And yet we get annoyed when kids complain about school.
that is so bad for the kid got arrested.
This is horrible that teacher should be fired
Cops should be ashamed of cuffing a little kid. But they’re merely embarrassed that it was filmed.
That teacher should have been fired
Thatβs stupid
Just because he want on a faith with a kid and hit a tsher dosing mean he haves to go to jufy
Teachers when a kid gets bullied: nothing serious going on
Teachers when the kid defends themselves: oh now im concerned
Looks like my son Riley in the video and some sick looking neanderthal in the picture
i wonder how he took a shower at prison
Wow can’t believe this. The school could have handle the situation differently.
Wtaf!!!
That school is soft af. Teachers soft as hell
This needs to stop
Another disadvantage of school police in US. They keep criminalizing small fights that happen in schools. Instead of tightening gun laws, US recruits more and more police to schools to prevent violence, which is incredibly stupid…
Why the HELL did my video glitch at 0:39
This is just wrong af
And we all know the teachers wouldnβt have bat an eye to the bully no matter what, but the second the victim punches the teacher thatβs really when it matter huh π€¨
Bruh the bully did not get in trouble??!
This video shows that our country is really messed up when the victim of bullying goes to jail and the bully gets away with no punishment, minus well give the bully a medal and a handshake cause that’s basically what they’re doing here…
I think the school systems should do better at watching for bullying instead of calling the cops and questioning your actions later
Disgusting
Cops who act like this should have the same exact thing (humiliation), done to them.
Too many cops think that everything can be handled with a manhandling (or childhandling), arrest, beating or killing.
If we use the same logic on them, do you think they would allow that? Pfffffffft.
Thatβs wrong why he go to prison he just a little boy
Lol. Only in America.
I donβt know laws that well or shi but i donβt think hitting your teacher will get you arrested especially at a young age were kids will sometimes lash out or sum
Fake
Police love kicking you when you’re down. I got bullied for 3 years from 9-12. I fought back against my bully & the cops lied on the police report & had me put away for 3 years at a place 2 hour drive away from my family. The staff at the facilities were violent & Minor Attacted Persons.
Why didnβt these cops arrest ANTIFA during the riots ???
