Do you know or does anyone else no if a child of 14 is arrested should the parents be informed because i thought that they should be

Have sent her a link.

yes

or a responsibel adult

Thanx sherlock. I wasnt informed and also had my house searched while at work house was empty but the police didnt inform me of anything and on the custody record it says i wouldnt attend but i didnt even no

check the warrant carefully and htat it has been date dna nd timed

i always put the time on mine

Sounds like you need to make a BIG complaint to the police about that

why was your house searched?

They think dd was involved in a robbery

My dd no saint and has her problems. The police no me i have always cooperated with them and they have tried to help dd.

Im so annoyed i wasnt informed she was in custody all afternoon

that's appalling!

Complain to the officer in charge and, if not happy with response, contact the IPPC, Independent Police Complaints Commission.

ooohh. that is sooooo bad. get something done. they cant just take your child and not inform you!

I am waiting to speak to the inspector

has he been charged? i wouldn't have thought they could proceed with any of this if the paper work isn't up to scratch or they haven't followed basic procedures, especially as he is a minor.

Agree with Cod - check the warrant. Just wonder if someone decided to search the house before notifying you in order to prevent you hiding or destroying evidence. Normally a responsible adult would have to be present with the child in custody and if you were contactable then you are entitled to ask who they tried to notify, when, and how.
