Here Are The WhatsApp Messages Those British Parents Were ARRESTED For…
A British couple who were arrested for complaining about their child’s school in a WhatsApp group have revealed the messages that led to their insane incarceration.
As we highlighted earlier this week, Police arrested Maxie Allen and Rosalind Levin in front of their daughter on suspicion of malicious communications, harassment, and causing a nuisance on school property.
Mr Allen noted “we have never even been told what these communications were that were supposedly criminal, which is completely Kafkaesque.”
Now the messages have come to light, and they are completely innocuous.
The couple complained about the process school governors were undertaking to appoint a new headteacher, and were sent a letter by the school warning them to stop discussing it.
Following this, Levine texted the group saying “they think they have a right to control everyone” adding that parents are free to “discuss anything they like”.
She further ironically joked that the school would have them arrested, writing “Can you imagine what the ‘action’ is? Hello, 999, one of the school mums said something mean about me in a school mum WhatsApp group. Please can you arrest them?”
Allen added that “No public body has the power to control what people say about it.”
The Daily Mail noted that other parents in the group supported that sentiment.

Levine charged that the head governor of the school has “little spies in WhatsApp and Facebook groups” who tattle on other parents, urging they should “get a life”.
This is what they were arrested for.
These messages are not even ‘disparaging’ as the school suggested, they are merely statements of fact.
Allen has described the arrests as “dystopian,” and “nightmarish”, adding: “We’d never used abusive or threatening language, even in private, and always followed due process.”
Police claimed that “The arrests were necessary to fully investigate the allegations as is routine in these types of matters.“
Maxie Allen and Rosalind Levine from Borehamwood, were detained in January by Hertfordshire Police and held in a police cell for eight hours following the dispute, which included messages shared on a parents' WhatsApp chat
