1. I was taken out of class by the assistant HS principal and two cops.

I was the last person to throw my trash in the cafeteria garbage can before a string of firecrackers went off. The bell rang at that moment so I went to class and told my history teacher about it not thinking I would be a suspect (real naive). After class started there was a knock on the door and the teacher had me come out to the hall at their request. I was immediately grabbed and slammed face first into the lockers, then handcuffed behind my back. I did not resist at all. My teacher tried to defend me but they were having none of it. The asst. principal grabbed my cuffed hands and lifted them up as high as they would go forcing my head down between my legs while he sniffed them and said he did not smell any gun powder. I told them I just threw my lunch bag away. The principal had the cops take me to his office and locked me inside where I sat for two hours alone and cuffed.

Eventually the asst. principal came to his office and started to say something when his phone rang. It was his wife who started dictating a grocery list. About 10 minutes into this he puts his hand over the phone and tells me I am free to leave. I motioned to the cuffs and he tells me to “hold on a minute.” Eventually he finished his call and radios the cops to come un-cuff me. While waiting he tells me they caught the perp. No apology, nothing!
