The article is going on what the girl said happened. We don't really know for sure if that's true. I doubt that she would admit to being guilty of anything. She sounds like a problem from the start. She may have been warned repeatedly by the officer and she still ran. I'm pretty sure she needed to be punished somehow.

Collin: I can understand your point. I'm not a big fan of tasers either but it was what the officer was given and he felt he had to use it. Her Mom may be sorry she is siding with the girl.
