Hey, teacher, leave them kids alone!

Mum’s anger over daughter’s arrest.

A TEENAGE girl was arrested after allegedly making racist remarks to Asian students.

Codie Stott, 14, was arrested after refusing to take part in a science tutorial with five students at Harrop Fold High School because she claimed they didn’t speak English.

After questioning by police she was released without charge but the school say they are
still investigating the matter internally.

Her furious mother Nicola, 37, of Grosvenor Drive, Walkden has defended her daughter’s stance.


She said: "Codie was not being racist. All that happened was that she was in a science lesson and the teacher split them up into discussion groups."

"Codie asked to be taken out of her group because the other five students were Asians and four didn’t speak English so there was no point in her being with them.

"When she pointed this out to the teacher she was accused of being racist and told to go to the isolation unit.

As she left the classroom she was stopped by a teacher patrolling the corridor and repeated her remark. He then made a complaint to the headteacher and the matter was referred to the community police officer based at the school.

"Codie was taken to the police station and kept in custody for over six hours while they questioned her.

Weasel words from the filth: "A police spokesperson confirmed that they had questioned Codie with regard to a Section Five Racial Public Order offence and that she had been kept in a juvenile unit, not a police cell. She was definitely not locked up for over six hours."

She was DETAINED and that is bad enough, especially for a child. The plod used the same line when I sued them for unlawful arrest 3 years ago; because I spent 5 hours detained first on a public street and then in a police station corridor, they used the same story that I wasn't "locked up". The complaint stuck, but the IPCC cut the time down to just one hour.

The girl's parents should sue the police and the school and good luck to them, they'll need it, because you can bet your life 'Cherie Booth QC' won't be representing them!
