3-year-old put in jail for potty-training trouble by Daytona Beach Shores police officer

A 3½-year-old child having difficulty getting potty trained was brought to the Daytona Beach Shores Public Safety Department on successive days last October and placed in jail, a high-ranking officer told a caseworker during an interview.

On the second occasion, Oct. 6, 2022, the child was also handcuffed.

"He was crying. I was getting the response I expected from him," Lt. Michael Schoenbrod told the Department of Children and Families caseworker, body-cam footage from a Volusia County Sheriff's Office deputy shows.

The boy promised to never again poop his pants, Schoenbrod said in the interview.

It is unclear whether Schoenbrod and another high-ranking Daytona Beach Shores officer, Det. Sgt. Jessica Long, who brought their child to the jail on Oct. 5, faced discipline from the city. The News-Journal has obtained copies of memos written by Public Safety Director Michael Fowler to each informing them of a professional standards investigation.

  • Considering the crybabies cops turn into any time someone even mentions the phrase "civilian oversight", we may have some other candidates for those cells.

  • Save our children from the police.

  • I thought it was the china bad times community before seeing the acab picture. Shit's wild.

  • “He was crying. I was getting the response I expected from him”.

    What other response from a toddler did you expect you ghoul?

  • "It is unclear whether Schoenbrod and another high-ranking Daytona Beach Shores officer, Det. Sgt. Jessica Long, who brought their child to the jail on Oct. 5, faced discipline from the city."

    Wait are you telling me that the pigs were the parents? And they handcuffed/jailed their toddler for shitting his pants? Poor kid, but funniest shit I've ever heard.

  • The cops were probably pissed they couldn't shoot the toddler after body-slamming him a few times.
