My son, Fatayi Jimoh, is an honor student on the Dean's list, a phenomenal AAU basketball
player, and has NEVER been in any trouble with the law. Anyone that knows my son in both PAL(police athletic
league) centers will speak on how respectful he is to others around him. Fatayi can be found in the PAL's
system because he has played for them since he was eight years old. He has even helped them to win a state
championship. In the past, officers have always let Fatayi utilize the small gym while my daughter participated
in PAL boxing. He has never posed a problem to anyone.
Saturday, August 4th, 2018, we were invited to support his team, Blacktop, as they went against
his friend's team, the Magics, in a championship game. The game took place in the big gym. After the game, a
little girl came up to me as I was saying goodbye to the coaches and parents. She said,"Excuse me, your son is
being arrested by the police for dribbling a basketball!" I became puzzled and frantic. I made my way through
the small gym and out the door. As I was walking towards the door, a retired officer who knows my son very
well stopped me and said,"Calm down momma, I spoke to the officers. I told them he's a good kid. He's going
to be okay." When I walked outside, I saw my son standing with at least three officers. My son was standing
next the rear passenger door of the police sedan. He was handcuffed and crying. An officer standing in front of
the group that included my son said, "Did they tell you what happened?" I said,"No, what did he do?" Officer
Hunter looked at me and said, "He was being disrespectful." I responded, "Why didn't you tell me?" Officer
hunter replied, "Ma'am there is a sign right there that says all children must stay with there parents!" At that

point I knew I was not talking to an officer who cared about children because I realized he took MY son, in
handcuffs, out of the gym I was in and had the nerve to tell me about a sign. There isn't a single sign there that
says a child should not dribble his personal ball in either gym (unless they put one up after this unfortunate
event). The way Hunter used the sign to justify his actions showed me that he could arrest my son if he went to
the bathroom or concession stand without a parent and charge him with trespassing if he didn't approve of my
son's behavior. He never told me what my son did that was disrespectful and he felt that it was better to
remove my eleven year old son in handcuffs to be taken where ever without my knowledge rather than to sit
down with the both of us and discuss my son's behavior like an officer in a mentoring PAL facility is expected to
do. Is that not what the PAL is for? When I realized the type of officers I was dealing with, I looked at my son
and I yelled at him in front of everyone, "Don't you see? These officers do not care about your life! This is why I
tell you to stay with me! Look at them! Look! They are ready to take you away from me and you are only
eleven! You didn't even hurt anyone! You didn't have to steal anything! For dribbling a basketball when he told
you not to?! You are a child and they don't care! They sit and wait for you to mess up so that they can take you
away! Even in a place like this, where you are suppose to be safe! He was ready to take you from me! I told you
about this country and their government! This is why I tell you can not go anywhere without me!" None of the
officers spoke against what I said to my son. I told his coach, Lo Miller (REDACTED), and he said he would talk
to the officers to find out what happened. He came back to me at my car and said, "The officers told Fatayi to
stop dribbling in the small gym three times. He told everyone to leave. Fatayi made his way towards the other
gym where you were. Hunter approached Fatayi and grabbed his arm, Fatayi snatched his arm back and out of
the officers grip. Then Hunter preceded to arrest Fatayi." How is an eleven year old suppose to leave without
his mother?! My son is a child who acted exactly how a scared eleven year old would react. Hunter never gave
his name to my son. Neither one of the officers properly introduced themselves to my son. They didn't even
care to know my son's name or age. Furthermore, Not one officer CARED to located his parent in facility
holding an event open to the public! When other parents asked the officers why can't you get his mother, they
never stopped in their act to ask them who the mother was. I am convinced that these officers DO NOT CARE
about my son or any of the children who were there. I PAID like every other visitor who attended. As a
homeschooling mother of two exceptional honor students, I do not think anything or anyone can ease this pain
that I have of watching my son crying in handcuffs in a place that I thought could change our view of how we
see officers. When my son was able to calm down, he pointed to a large round man in a red shirt and told me
that while hunter was putting handcuffs on him, the man in the red shirt said, "Now you are going to see what
it is like to be arrested!" My son said a parent named Justin Rice was yelling, "Its OK, he can't take you to jail!"
My son heard Hunter respond back, "Yes I can, its called trespassing!" After sitting in the car and gathering my
thoughts, I went back to the door to get the names of the officer who handcuffed my son. I was banging on the
door. I heard people near the door talking but no one answered. I started banging again. The third time, the
man in the red shirt who my son pointed earlier answered the door. I told him that I needed the officer's name-
the officer who put my son in handcuffs. The man said, "Take my name, I'm the Sargent. D.A. Robinson." I was
furious. He wasn't in uniform and he still allowed his officer to treat my child in such a way. I asked for his
badge number as well, he said,"6525." I responded, "I still need that officers name and badge number."
Sargent Robinson very sternly said,"Hunter." I looked past him and saw all of the officers in a huddle. I saw
Hunter as well and wondered why he couldn't speak for himself as he did earlier. I looked at Robinson and said,
"So do you know his badge number too?!" Robinson look away as if he was trying to think of it. Then Hunter
himself responded,"68037." I said, Thank you. I went to my car and cried. Every time I look at my son, I cry. He
wishes NEVER to play for PAL again. He wishes to NEVER be around officers again. I feel the same way.

How can PAL be a safe for children? It is unsafe to have officers who are ALL BADGE & NO HEART
working around the youth in this community. I know for a fact that they DO NOT have a protocol that all
officers should follow when it comes to handling children when a child chooses to be disobedient. I will share
how I know this. Last Monday, July 30th 2018, again -children were dribbling in the small gym although the
officers there at the time had told them not to. The officer took their balls and put them in a corner and said,
"Now you can get your parents if you want your ball back." Why wasn't my son given this chance? Without a
protocol in place to prevent these situations from happening, PAL is leaving everything to the officers'
individual discretion. This is not fair to our community due the FACT: Not every officer is officer friendly
meaning not every officer is willing to have patience with the children. Hunter proved to be a seriously rotten
apple among the bad ones working there that day. Why did he as an officer implement such a heinous form
trauma upon my son, myself, parents, and the other children around? He was not on the streets of nasty
neighborhoods working! These are children.. fifth graders and younger to be exact! Even worse, PAL is suppose
to be a place children CAN BE children and not receive punishment in the form of trauma and/or civil rights
violation for being disobedient! How is PAL suppose to be a mentoring facility to keep children off the streets
and on the right path in life if you have officers working there who do not care about these children to begin
with? I have been in tears sporadically since this event because I worked so hard to prevent my children from
knowing the feeling of being handcuffed for any reason just to see my son experience this traumatic event
before he has even has had the chance to experience middle school, girls, etc. We are in this nightmare
because my son was so focused on dribbling his ball which wasn't bothering anyone. He wants to go to school
for engineering and play in the NBA. His ball is his best friend because I don't allow my son to go to any ones
house. His AAU and PAL basketball teams were his sole source of a social life outside of home school because I
only wanted him to be around positive people and good role models. This is why the extent of our pain is so
deep. If the officer was a REAL man, father, leader, brother, son- he would've known to simply say, "Go and get
your mom." My son would have done just that and we would not be living in this nightmare. I will never allow
anyone I know or love attend any event held by Jacksonville's PAL. I hope who ever reads this knows when to
put the badge down and use his or her heart instead.
F.S.S. 837.06: Whoever knowingly makes a false statement in writing with the intent to mislead a public servant in the
performance of his or her official duty shall be guilty of a misdemeanor of the second degree.

Signature of Citizen:
All information is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
