Off Duty Danville Police Officer Boards School Bus To Confront Student

Featured Replies

I'll be curious to hear the answer and would be SHOCKED if that's the case.

 

I also find it hard to believe that ONLY the SRO can enter a classroom. Defies logic.

When you are in a moving vehicle on the highway, you are now subject to stop just like any other vehicle (from my state trooper neighbor I just asked)

I don't think he was arguing the stop. It was whether the driver had to allow the officer on the bus or not.

Im friends with a few bus drivers, Ive reached out to them asking how their district handles this situation. I assume its like the classroom, and unless its your school resource officer, no other officers are allowed to just enter the classroom. (Classroom = bus, in this instance)

 

This is incorrect. School Resource Officers (SROs) do not have exclusive jurisdiction inside a school.

 

For example, if the Kentucky State Police show up at your school to investigate a crime and the SRO tries to stop them from entering the SRO may end up going to jail.

 

Your school system needs to hire a competent lawyer and get its act together.

Exactly correct.

So, the officer, in his cruiser, uses his police powers to pull the bus over to confront some boys about an alleged touching of his daughters hair? Abuse of powers?

 

What if his daughter just didn't like the boy(s) and made it up? The officer went over the line, a bit, when he tied to humiliate the boy by calling him Justin Bieber.

 

But when the officer showed his badge and said "I don't have to, see that? I don't have to", to me that shouldn't have happened.

 

I get a father being protective, but he has to made sure that what his daughter said is 100% truth. I could possibly see it if he waited at school and for the boys to come off the bus and ask them, without being confrontational while allowing them to leave if they wanted. I can see any father doing this, if it's calm and in the correct manner. But, he should have had the school handle it first.

That is why you report your activity immediately, stop any immediate threat, and call a neutral third party to handle the investigation.

I didn't watch the video, read the tiny story on the link. So...the boys touched her hair and he pulls the bus over, gets in, and calls the boys "justin bieber"? Obviously a mistake, but I kinda feel bad for the guy. If this is his reaction to something like "touching hair" then it is only gonna get much much worse.

It's crazy here in Danville anymore. I swear.

 

I was embarrassing to read Facebook as so many friends said this is the way you are to handle things as a parent.

I don't even want to share my opinion on it. I saw all of the stuff on Facebook and just shook my head.

Sounds logical, but how does the bus driver know it is a police officer. I would not let the officer on the bus unless I knew they were a police office personally or after contact was made with local law enforcement to verify. Probably 99.99% will be legitimate, but we do have nut cases, as you know.

 

It's not you won't let them on it is you won't let them on until you know they are a police officer. Same for the classroom.

 

Every time in a school as a principal the officer told me why he/she were there and what he/she needed to do. It was very cordial. There were times I questioned why they had to pick the kid up at school, they gave me a reasonable answer. If a minor, I notified the parents, I had to. Didn't need their position, but did notify. They could come to the school and sit in the investigation or questioning if that is what it was.

 

Schools/police want to cooperate, need to cooperate, and in the vast majority of cases do so.

 

The misconception is why a bus driver or teacher would allow access to minors without being certain.

And in my experience 98% of the time the police and schools work together flawlessly.

Danville is a small town. We all know who Ryan Hundley is. Can't miss him to be honest. He's big intimidating looking fella. Not to mention, if I was a bus driver and a cop pulled me over I'm going to let him on the bus also. In what world are we living in where a bus driver wouldn't want a cop on the bus?

Is this the same guy that there was a story about him assisting a kid at the fair that asked for help getting into and off of rides. Kid was in a wheelchair and he carried him off and on rides all night.

 

Someone said it was this guy and some one else said it wasnt.

Yes that was him. In the Facebook post it has his name in it saying it was him.

 

Rumors said that there was a kid on the bus today that got so scared he peed on himself.
