grandfather stopped and cuffed for walking home granddaughter
“I hated for a five-year-old to be subjected to such an experience,” Henson said. “I’d like her to view police as people she can trust instead of threats to her and her family,

The question i have is, how could this have been handled differently? You have report of a kidnapping, and I for one would want the police to investigate something as serious as a kidnapping. But if he was cleared by the first cop who questioned him, why wasn’t this information passed on? I would have hate to hear that a black girl was kidnapped and the police did nothing about it, but i don’t think you want innocent people being harassed for walking down the street with their love ones.
