The knife had a broken handle....Not one of mom's good "Rachel Ray's signature orange handle butcher knife, with serrated blade to keep food from sticking".

Where did they get the handcuffs?

And I can hear some child psychologist saying, "These children are not developmentally disabled, The fact that they were able to organize and develop a plan shows that they have been misdiagnosed!"

LOL, In the GOOD OLD DAYS, If I had done something like that I would have been marched home and given a good crack across the arse. IF I was lucky I would have been given a dressing down....But since the cops were involved I guess a good trashing would have been in order.
