''After sticking to small talk during their meal, Jo asked as they were finishing up, "So, what’s been going on at the school?" Redfoot frowned and said, "When I got to the school the day before the term started, there were two sheriff’s deputies and one of the district’s IT guys waiting for me. While the IT guy hosed my PADD and com, the deputies served me with an injunction to stay away from school property and forbidding me from contacting any of the students or employees of the school or their families. It took me this long to get the injunction modified so that I was allowed to contact friends that I had known before they had any connection with the school." Jo looked shocked. "What in the world did they use for justification?" "They said that they had evidence that I was ‘contributing to the delinquency of a minor’, but there have been no charges filed."''
