7th-graders arrested on pot charges
Four Red Mountain Middle School seventh-graders were released from custody Tuesday afternoon, after a hearing before Special Master Charles Kretek.
Appearing on drug charges were three 13-year olds and a 14-year old. One of the students has uncompleted community-service time, Kretek was told. The four were detained Monday midday at RMMS.
The four were detained overnight following arrival Monday of Border Operation Task Force agents at RMMS. Each boy is charged with possession of marijuana in a drug-free school zone, a third-degree felony if committed by an adult. All but one were also charged with conspiracy to distribute in a drug-free school zone, a fourth-degree felony if committed by an adult.
"You conspired with one or more people to sell marijuana," Kretek told the three in explaining the charge.
Conditions of release, Kretek said, are house arrest, with none allowed to leave his home but for a doctor's appointment, court appearance or school. At the moment, the four are suspended, but Kretek proposed placing them in the City/County/Schools IDIP program if they are re-admitted to school. The program, directed by Deming Police Lt. Katheen Schindler, is likely to start later this month. The Intensive Disciplinary Intervention Program, Schindler has said, is an attempt to deal individually with youngsters and their integrity.
Release also includes not carrying any weapons, even a pocket knife. Each must wear an electronic bracelet. Parents of each are responsible for their respective sons following rules and probation officers may inspect a boy's home at any time, without notice. A violation could send a youngster back to detention. His parents would have to answer for a violation, also.
"We had a call from the school," Larry Lutonsky, director of the BOTF, said Tuesday. "I'm not sure who. Two of my guys went over and brought the four back. They were charged and referred to the JPO (Juvenile Probation Office), which authorized detention until their hearings."
Lutonsky said some marijuana was in 3- and 4-ounce packets. School officials, including Red Mountain Principal Robin Parnell, were cooperative with agents, Lutonsky said. Neither Parnell nor school Superintendent Harvielee Moore was available for comment Tuesday afternoon.
Kretek explained the legal process and rights of each teenager. If found guilty, penalties could range from probation to two years in a state facility. The system also offers 15-day evaluation to determine if a child is released to his home. Other options include a youth camp.

INTENSIVE DISCIPLINARY INTERVENTION PROGRAM?
Those kids will play along just to get by. Man these people are dumb.
I just wonder what technique they use. And on what level the kids are supposed to 'click' over to the 'right' side. Of course they are quite young, but i mean... thats interesting. i guess it depends on the indidivual what they decide according to their established personal criteria. of course the cheese want to disssociate the kids from their establish criteria. PLAY along, or WORK along, occifer? er cifer ficer cifer ficer. er? eh? erhuh HUH?

Translation:
The Government will teach those kids that they are to do exactly as the government says.
They are to learn that their body belongs to the government as they are NOT to consume anything they wish, the government demands complete obedience, these kids must learn to turn their will over to the government.
Y'all learn them younguns early, gotta crack dat whip once in a while know whatah mean y'all.
It is up to their parents to babysit kids, not my damn tax money.

If anything, I hope this opens these kids eyes to the problems with our country's drug laws. I know when I was 13, I was as anti-American as I am now. I was quick to call the police on their bullshit as I am today.
One can only hope these kids are at least that smart, and that they see that they didn't do anything horribly wrong, and that this really didn't need to be blown out of proportion by the media.
Drugs are in schools, shit happens. Until you take the monopoly away from the underground and regulate it you're never going to keep pot away from anyone, be they a kid or not. -1 for prohibition again.

I dont have much sympothy for these kids. Weed should be legalized, but it aint right now, and only a moron sells QPs at school in this day and age. I think, considering the crimes they commited, these fools got off pretty damn lucky, especially if they're smart enough to be the system's bitch for awhile.

do you really think that legalizing weed is going to keep it out of the hands of the younger ones?
13 and 14 year olds are smoking cigarettes when I last checked.

13 and 14 year olds are smoking cigarettes when I last checked.
and the last i checked tobacco and alcohol are harder to get a hold of by kids because there is a minimum age restriction to buying it, thus denying their ability to get these things without an adult, and most adults will not purchase these things for minors.
this was how it was when i was in highschool, cocaine was the easiest thing to get a hold of, sometimes even free, next was pot, after that came prescription meds, heroin, THEN alcohol and tobacco, alcohol being the hardest to get a hold of because cigarettes were easier to steal.

Yeah, teen smoking and drinking is actually down by a significant percentage. I mean, there will always be the ones who do it, be it to rebel or whatever, but I think legalization and control of the drug market would ultimate reduce the appeal of drugs because they'd lose their "rebellion factor" and would mainly become harder to get access to because the black market wouldn't be the predominant source.
