6:07Now PlayingIn a disturbing incident captured on bodycam footage, a 9-year-old student at Stenstrom Elementary School in Oviedo, Florida, was handcuffed by police officers in February. The fourth-grade student was reportedly throwing an aggressive tantrum in the school's mail room, prompting school resource officers to intervene. Despite the child's young age, the officers resorted to restraining him with handcuffs for a total of 13 minutes until he calmed down. The video has sparked outrage and raised questions about the appropriateness of using such forceful measures on a minor.

The family of the 9-year-old boy is now taking legal action against the City of Oviedo and the school resource officers involved in the incident. They argue that the use of handcuffs on their son was excessive and unjustified, given his age and the nature of the situation. The family's lawsuit seeks to hold the city and the officers accountable for their actions and to ensure that similar incidents do not occur in the future. The Law&Crime Network's Elizabeth Millner provides an in-depth analysis of the case, discussing the legal implications and the broader debate surrounding the use of force by law enforcement in school settings.
