"At school, they told us that if we ever see drugs, call 911 because people who use drugs need help… . I thought the police would come get the drugs and tell them that drugs are wrong. They never said they would arrest them. It didn’t say that in the video. The police officer held me by the shoulder and made me watch them put handcuffs on my mom and dad and put them in the police car. I always thought police were honest and told the truth. But in court, I heard them tell the judge that I wanted my mom and dad arrested. That is a lie. I did not tell them that."

— Nine year-old Darrin Davis, quoted in Lost Rights, by James Bovard, p. 208.
