15-Year-Old Denied Release After Being Jailed For Not Doing Homework

A judge in Michigan, United States has ruled that a 15-year-old girl who was incarcerated for not completing her homework would not be released.

Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Mary Ellen Brennan during the three-hour proceeding on Monday said it was in the teenager’s best interest to stay in the program.

However, U.S news site ProPublica which did a special report on Grace and her mother, revealed that the teenager has ADHD, receives special education services and struggled with the transition to online learning and fell behind. At Monday’s hearing, Brennan stressed that police had responded to incidents between the mother and the daughter three times and that Grace’s detainment came out of violating probation related to charges of assault and theft from last year, ProPublica reported.“She was detained because I found her to be a threat of harm to her mother based on everything I knew.”
