[StBernard] St. Bernard Parish sheriff's son booked with burglary

[Westley Annis]

I think the second commenter was right.

Yes, he is a 28 year old adult, but he is still the child of the Sheriff.

There are two definitions for the word child. First commented is focusing
the usage on the primary definition, "a person between birth and full
growth". The second commenter, and probably the Sheriff also, is focusing on
the second definition, "a son or daughter".

At least this is a little more than arguing over the definition of "is".

At least we can give kudos to the Sheriff for now. With the information that
is out in the public, he allowed his son to be arrested. How many other
sheriff's would have allowed their children to be arrested within their own
jurisdiction?

Time will tell if he ends up being treated the same as other offenders or if
he is treated more leniently.

The first commenter was correct....at 28 you are long from being a child,
and most likely have a child of your own.
