What is the name of your state? Kentucky
I need some advice. My little brother lives in Florida with my mom. This past weekend he got into some trouble with some friends. All I know is what he told my mom. They broke into a mans garage and got some beer and broke a few bottles. The next day the police came and asked my brother some questions and he told everything he knew. He showed them where they got the beer. The man who's garage got broken into did not press charges but worked out a work deal. On the other hand there was a vehicle broke into which my brother claims he nothing to do with. The other boys were found with pills in their pocket. Just yesterday an investigator went to my brother's school and questioned him without any parent or lawyer present. Of course he talked because he thought he was getting arrested. My brother is only 14 years old and is not mental but don't know much about these procedures, which I couldn't see any 14 year old knowing. My mom is a truck driver and was in NC which my brother was staying with her boss. My question is. Can a minor be questioned by the police without a parent or attorney present? Does the school have to allow him to call a parent or guardian? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
