What is the name of your state? Ohio
My son was recently arrested for arson. He is 12 years old. He was arrested at school when the fire investigator went to the school to question him. I was asked if this was ok, I said yes, but for them to call me before going, so that I could meet them there. I was never called until my son was arrested. He said that he asked them if he could call me before and while they were questioning him. He was not allowed to call me. He said he told them he did it because they wouldn't believe him and he just wanted them to leave him alone.
Do minors have the same rights as adults when being questioned? Should they had let him call me since he asked more than once?What is the name of your state?
