The mother of a 10-year-old child who was sentenced by a Mississippi judge to three months of probation and a book report for urinating in public has refused to sign his probation agreement and has asked for the charge against her son to be dismissed, the family's attorney announced Tuesday.
The child's mother had initially planned on signing the agreement to avoid the risk of prosecutors upgrading her son's charge, as they threatened, but she changed her mind after reading the full agreement Tuesday, attorney Carlos Moore said.
