Let's see...probation for first offense? nope. Detention, yup. Foster care, yup. Taken away from parents, yup. Parents need counselling right away! |

Suspension, I would imagine. |

None. He will be sentenced to receive counseling and put on probation. |

Don't you mean allegedly?
For those that think they don't put 9 year olds "in the slammer", if you want an eye opener, check out your local Juvenile Hall, also called JUVIE.
They probably won't sentence them to Juvie if it's first time, but if he gets in trouble alot, then they will need to do something. And hopefully he will learn from this and do what is right in the future. |

In Canada no one under the age of twelve can be charged with a criminal offence. No charges/court/jail time. The school would have to suspend (or expel) the child and the Child Protection Services would get involved to look into the child's home life to see if they can help/ |

Depend on what he did. If he killed the teacher, he could be tried as an adult. |

In GA 9 year old children can not be punished by any court for any criminal act. |

If it's his first offense, he'll probably get probation. I don't think they're going to put a nine-year-old in the slammer. |

If it's a first offense, he will probably be suspended from school, and ordered to go to a counselor. I highly doubt he will be sent to "juvie". |

As it is a felony, Assault & Battery on a Public Official, it would depend on the laws of your state. |

Shame on the parents of this child because they have failed as parents,if the 9 year old was taught morals from home,this would never happen. |
