Arrest
I was arrested on March 23, 2012 for possession of a concealed weapon while hanging out with my friends. The Police approached us because of suspicious behavior by the Mini Mart on the corner of 5th and Lard Ave. I was patted down by Officer Bain were he found the .22 I carry on me at all times. I was then taken into police custody. While being arrested I was read my Miranda Rights and questioned by the police at the precinct. (Bostwick, 2010 Pg.5)
Intake
Cja 374 - The intake at the juvenile correction facility was harsh they took away my shoelaces and checked my body again and took by clothes to give me the standard garb they want you to wear. Officer Jade told me my clothes were to lose to wear and posed a hazard to me and others in the room. I was finger printed by a computer that scanned my hands and my fingers and asked questions like my race gender and age. I went through a screening process with a lady from the probation department. She said I was to be detained in a secure detention facility. I know they have a total of 40 hours to bring me to a Judge for detention hearing and I get a lawyer.
