Texas honor student jailed for truancy likely spent night with 'hard-core' criminals | Fox News: "Diane Tran, an 11th-grade honor student at Willis High School near Houston, was sent to jail for 24 hours last Wednesday by Judge Lanny Moriarty and ordered to pay a $100 fine for excessive truancy."
"Tran, who works full-time at a dry-cleaning business and part-time for a wedding planner, has been supporting her brother and sister since her parents separated and her mother moved away."
"the girl likely spent her 24-hour jail sentence at Montgomery County Jail surrounded by suspected murderers, drug addicts and prostitutes.
"It's hard-core," he said of the jail, noting that past clients whom he has defended described it as "the worst experience of their life." "
""If you let one run loose, what are you going to do with the rest of them? Let them go, too?" [Judge] Moriarty told the station."
Perish the thought that people will work hard to support their family! We can't have that!
"I think the public policy of making kids attend school is necessary and 24 hours in jail would be pretty minimal and should get the point across," "
The policy is to ensure that children get a good education so it doesn't make sense to punish someone who is doing well in school!
