What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
My question involves criminal law for the state of: New York
Hi,
We were at a swim meet in Brooklyn and they had metal detectors at the school. One of the guys on my swim team had a belt with metal shaped as brass knuckles and the security guards stopped him. They arrested him, put him in handcuffs, and called in a lieutenant. He was in the precinct for a while before his parents picked him up.
He has no prior offenses. He is 17 years old which means that he is no longer a juvenille in New York. There was no intent or anything. He didn't talk back, he just sat there and cooperated. Our school has 0 criminal history and we're one of the most elite schools in the country, if that counts for anything.
They gave him a summons to court.
Can anyone please tell me what kind of charges he might get? We're all really worried about him.
Thanks. I would really appreciate any help any one can give.
Thank you again
