14 y/o Muslim student arrested for bringing "bomb" to school[It was a Clock]

[Minimalist]

This is a 2011 Supreme Court case, on point, which any judge or appellate court would have to overcome.

The case the Court ruled upon involved a 13 year-old boy whom the police suspected of involvement with two burglaries. A police officer went to his school, removed him from class and placed him in a conference room with the door closed and two school administrators present.

The officer did not give the boy a Miranda warning or inform him that he could leave the room at any time prior to beginning the questioning. After the boy admitted to participation in the burglaries, however, the officer told the boy that he could refuse to answer questions and leave whenever he wanted. The boy stayed and provided further detail about the crimes.

The Supreme Court held that the trial judge improperly denied the boy's request to throw out the statements he made to police because he did not receive the proper Miranda notification. The Court recognized the fact that, because of their relative immaturity and lack of experience, children "cannot be viewed simply as miniature adults".

Note that this was the customary 5-4 ruling with the 4 nazis voting to treat a 13 year old as a career criminal.  Typical.
