High school in Illinois I was at a school Battle of the Bands event for 5-10 minutes when I was surrounded by 2 deans, and 4 policemen.They said I needed to come with them for questioning. They put me under a bright light and all six smelled my hands and checked my eyes.They threatened to arrest me if I did not cooperate. I was threatened 3 seperate times.They said I was threatened because I wanted to leave. All 6 adults stood around me. They said my right hand smelled like marijuana, and my eyes were dialated. I am a cigarette smoker,not marijuana. I am suspended for 10 days because they said I was under the influence. My parents were called and I was sent home. We had a meeting with the dean, and asked how I was picked out of the crowd of hundreds after only 5-10 minutes and the dean said the school officer said my eyes looked dialated. I am being railroaded and the school is sticking to their story that my right hand smelled. I don't want to be suspended for something I didn't do, or have it on my school record. My parents are supporting me, but the school is not cooperating. What can we do?
