Florida state senator makes push to stop arrests of children under the age of 10

The body camera video of the arrest was recently released. The officer who arrested Kaia, Dennis Turner, was eventually fired.

Originally, the proposed amendment was targeted at children under the age of 12, but after negotiations in Tallahassee and examining laws in other states, the compromise of children under the age of 10 is being pushed forward during the current legislative session.

The Florida Senate is expected to debate the new amendment to a crime bill, which would prohibit arrests of children under the age of 10 for misdemeanor crimes.
