Police said the student was physically unharmed.
Byers-Smith said she asked police to search the school bus lot, but they told her they first needed to search her house …
Uh huh.

Like…can they not do both? A fucking kindergartner is missing - we can walk and chew gum at the same time, yes? yes………?
Why would police need to search a home that has been searched?? The problem is the child ISN’T in the house.
How in the flying fuck are you even getting upvoted for suggesting a violation of privacy? This country is braindead.
Because they’re black, so obviously, they make/have illegal drugs in their house. It’s simple police-math. And they’ll shoot their dog, just for good measure.
I don’t know man cops are shit but kids are great at hiding. How annoyed would you be if you went and searched all over the fucking county looking for this kid and you found out the kid was hiding behind an open door in their parents bedroom and fell asleep like I did to my parents when I was a kid.
That’d require the child be home, first. Mom was worrying because he hadn’t come home from the bus and no one was picking up the phone at the school or the bus company. I’m going to guess that getting into the house would have been noticeable because calling the cops was not mom’s go-to move – and they proved her prioritization correct by being useless.
But the cops have no reason to think the child is in the home at all? The mom called them because the bus never dropped him off and couldn’t get ahold of the school or bus company. She KNEW 100% her kid wasn’t home, they just refused to take her at her word.
yeah, you act kike children become invisible. I’d say they are actually not that great at hiding and police officers should be competent enough to find one. This story tells it all.
But he wasn’t hiding, he was lost and needed help being found. If the cops had listened to the mom he would’ve been found sooner without the unnecessary invasion of privacy.
The 5-year-old was honking the horn on the bus for help when he was found, she said.
