"This is getting ridiculous," said the boy's mother. "They treated my son like a criminal. .. . This is no way to treat a 12-year-old kid."

Well what kind of 12-year-old kid shows a bag of powdered sugar to his friends in the restroom?
Heck, powdered sugar isn't THAT interesting, for cripesake.

I don't know what the kid was up to, but I'm not buying that story about asking the science teacher if he could use it either.
The little turd was up to something.

I once torqued off our high school vice principal (1970) for having a box candy cigarettes in my right sock (just enough so he could see it).

I agree, but what's the deal with a felony charge? What's wrong with detention?

I'm with you on this one...Mommy says the boy said "Just kidding" about it being cocaine, but I don't believe a word of it.

Now, I'd be "more" with you if you'd just get rid of your tagline! (besides, I don't know if you mean Robertson, Buchanan or Riley)

Yeah, he was going to trade the "sugar/cocaine" for oral sex ;-)

Sounds like something a 12 year old kid very well might do. He did tell them it was a joke.

re :The little turd was up to something.

Way to judge the lad.

All 12 year old lads are up to something it goes with being 12 years of age. Its about time we regained our sense of perspective where teenagers are concerned.

I still remember what I was like at that age.
