The law expressly mandates that any person over the age of twelve be detained or confined in a juvenile or adult facility for up to seventy-two hours. The person shall not be released within the seventy-two hours until after the person has been examined and evaluated by a designated crisis responder unless the court in its discretion releases the person sooner after a determination regarding probable cause or on probation or bail,” the lawsuit said. The lawsuit also states that any violation of RCW 9.41.280 by an elementary or secondary school student constitutes grounds for expulsion from a state public school.
