I think they at the school should have just told the kid with the watch ..oh well, such is life..and went about doing nothing. Then dealt with it at the PTA or school board meeting as to why they do nothing to stop theft in schools..This probably would sure stop anyone else from even thinking about stealing from another. I'm sure knowing they might search my locker, pockets wouldn't stop me from taking things that aren't mine. How fair are our rights anyhow? I had to pee in a cup for drugs/ alcohol in order to keep my job. I earned money and paid taxes with it. My tax dollars were given to someone that got a free state check every month because they didn't want to work and....guess what?..They didn't have to pee in a cup or loose their free check if test positive like I would have if I did...Fair?....But it is their right...I lost mine when I got the job/ CDL...Now since the watch was taken from the locker room while they were in class, why wouldn't the person in charge of solving things not keep those that were there there?..I can't see them letting them out to hide it elsewhere first then expect to locate it. I think it was a good thing they stayed in the room and not leave because after the search of their locker, pockets etc they didn't find it so that made each and every one of them innocent of the crime...none of them were able to hide it elsewhere..Since when didn't a little scare put in ya as a kid not make you stop and think what might happen if you did decide later to take something?...I'm sure little johnny never did or does anything wrong...and I don't see a cavity search because how could little johnny hide a watch in those dark places?...I don't see him wanting it that bad....Drugs?..maybe but then again, we don't have a drug problem either anywhere... I sure wouldn't want them searching any kids locker to find drugs he was selling to the other kids in school...sure wouldn't want to hurt his feelings. After all he has a right to sell drugs or steal from others to pay for them....we are just too easy on the crooks and the rest of us have to pay for it in the long run...Just like guns. Criminals use them in a crime but they want to take ours....so again the innocent always pay in the end...bet the watch thief only got yelled at...or maybe not...might make him cry then the school would have to deal with his parents at the PTA or board meeting...Darn if ya do and darn if ya don't....so ...PUNT!
