Reading of rights
Notifications OFF
Hi, hope you are all okay.
I was wondering if anyone knows the process better than me!
We had the knock for my 15 year old son about 7-8 weeks ago now. On the day at the house 2 of the officers went up to speak to my son, they said at this point they are mainly concerned about wellbeing and sexual orientation, so they went to talk to him without one of us present. Then half way through the 2 officers who were downstairs looking through my sons phone must have found something, one went up and stood on the landing whispering to her colleague.
The officer then went back into my sons room and apparently read him his rights. I'm thinking this should have been disclosed to us at this point so he had the opportunity to have one of us present with him?
I feel this could be a breach of PACE? But the information is all a bit overwhelming online.
Thank you in advance for any information anyone may have xx

Hi Crushed - I can't help I'm afraid although it sounds wrong. I'm replying so your post bumps up again and some more legal minds than mine might see it. You could repost too in the general forum which gets more traffic. Also the forum on the Family Rights group, or their helpline, might be helpful as they are legally trained. Hope you get an answer.....
