Safety Law News for November 1, 2018

 

 

  • In Florida, school officials are refusing to arm faculty and staff members under the Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act [SB 7026].  $67 million was to be used solely for what the law calls “school guardians.”  But $58 million remains unspent.  The Governor and the legislature disagree on whether to divert the funds to provide sworn resource officers.

 

  • In Georgia, the Court of Appeals of Georgia held that a high school student, who was called by the school principal to the principal’s office, was not in custody when he admitted to a school resource officer that he choked another student.  The court reasoned that Miranda warnings were not required. (State v. Daniell)
