This depends on the state where the interview takes place. In some states, police can interview juveniles without a parent or advocate present. In cases where a parent is suspected of criminal misconduct, a court-appointed advocate is usually present to protect the child's interests.
Yes.
A child can be arrested from the age of 9 upwards. The age of 9 is when a child is legally classed as being able to tell the difference between right and wrong. So yes, a 12 year old can be questioned without a parent or guardian present.
However, the child can request that a parent, guardian or legal representative be contacted. If the child does that then no further questions can be asked until the contact arrives.
If the police are questioning the child about the parent or members of their family, then a court-appointed legal representative may attend, because having a family member present can cause the child to alter their story to police.
Absolutely, all children can be questioned as long as the parent(s) are present.
If he/she is a minor one, presence of parents during police questioning is a must. Otherwise,the school principal ought to be present in the scene.
Police can question anyone if they have the proper authority (e.g. warrant), but a parent or guardian is authorized to be present during questioning of a child.
yes but she has to live with a parent
Only with parental consent and the parents being present, unless it is a case of abuse.
No. It is not legal, the teen is considered a minor until the age of 18 and cannot be questioned without a parent or legal guardian present.
Of course you can continue to be questioned, however, anything you say cannot be used against you in most circumstances. In theory a minor cannot be questioned by Police without the presence of a lawyer or legal parent/guardian. A school official though, does not need your parent present to question you, but you do have the right to request him/her to stop questioning you until a parent arrives.
A juvenile can be questioned by the police without his or her parents present as long as it is not considered to be a "custodial interrogation".Once the minor is taken into custody by police, a parent or guardian will be notified in order for them to come to the station. The police can question the minor without their parents present, howeever the minor is within their rights to remain silent and request a solicitor.
No, a parent must be present.
If the alleged abuse is about the parent then yes.
Yes but it depends if it involves the parent
Yes, they can be questioned. No, they do not have to answer or even stay where the officer asks them to be.
