First, I think those people did exactly what they were supposed to do given their positions. Even though many of you think a good spanking from the assistant principal would have solved it, it's still illegal for her to do that. She's not allowed to touch the kid like that. End of story.
Second, while I see appropriately dispensed spankings as acceptable in certain situations, I don't think this is one of them. When I was about her age, I tried to beat up my big brother. I don't remember why. But I do remember being trapped on the couch under his giant ass for what seemed like forever (yes, he sat on me). It was probably only about 5 minutes. You can bet I calmed the heck down. Did I ever try to beat him up again? Nope.
This obviously isn't the first time that kid has had behavioral trouble. I suspect she has some kind of learning disability or other disorder that is making her very angry, but I can't really know. Maybe she was just a brat like everybody else seems to think. Either way, the people at the school (including the police) did exactly what they were supposed to do.
