Is this America? The Railroading of 14-year-old Dillon Reedy. How Your 1st Amendment Free Speech & Due Process Constitutional Rights can be Stripped from You in a Blink of an Eye. An In-depth Discussion with Alison Reedy (Dillon’s Mother)

On this episode we examine how our First Amendment (freedom of speech) and due process rights can be stripped from us and violated in a rapid series of cascading events that ultimately put our freedom and liberties in grave jeopardy.
We travel to Michigan to speak with our special guest, Alison Reedy, the mother of young Dillon Reedy.
The following events unfolded at Huron High School in New Boston, Michigan on December 8th, 2021.
This is a case that every parent of any school child anywhere across the nation should be extremely concerned about.
Imagine sending your 14-year-old son to school in the morning and by the afternoon he’s been arrested, never Mirandized (according to his mother) taken in hand cuffs to the juvenile detention facility where he was processed into the system and issued a state (juvenile) criminal ID number — and forced to submit to a mugshot — ALL for something he did not do.
The fact pattern showed that in a brief conversation with another student in class, Dillon was accused by the classroom teacher of making a terroristic threat to “shoot up” the school.
The teacher incorrectly overheard what she thought was a threat. She later allegedly admitted that she never herself felt threatened, according to Alison.
From there, common sense went AWOL.
Dillon was “in big trouble”— the school secretary said to his mom — when she called to inform Alison to come to the school immediately. Wrongfully accused, wrongfully charged. Let down by a host of adults who should have been able to understand the difference between a credible threat and one that was not credible.
This is a textbook case of a “rush to judgment” by over half a dozen school, municipal and county professionals and politicians, as well as the Huron School Board, any of which should have known better than to proceed with this case.
Initial news reports regarding this incident were defaming, libelous and salacious and most importantly WRONG! Alison maintains that the county prosecutor was “rogue” … as the county was in possession of evidence that exonerated her son — yet, they chose willingly to suppress and overlook those crucial facts.
“Negligence on all sides, a biased expulsion hearing and two off-record plea deals,” Alison stated.
No one desires to see any violence on any school campus. However, this zero-tolerance policy for even uttering the words “shoot” or “gun” is an unconstitutional kneejerk reaction by the legislature and has led school administrators to make rash and very costly decisions concerning student discipline.
The truth matters. Facts matter. Dillon Reedy’s rights matter!
If this happened to our guest and her son, certainly it can happen to you and your family.
After hearing the fact pattern in this case you’ll ask yourself:
— Is this America?
— Is the First Amendment still intact and applicable?
— How can abuses such as this take place, everyday across our nation?
