Did I miss something, or is a 12 year old in France now in (indefinite?) police custody for being curious online?

Seriously?

1,739 jihadi videos, “a phenomenal quantity of scenes of decapitation, throat-slitting, shootings,”

Oh yeah, you know, being curious online.

Adult moderators for social networks/content platforms get serious trauma from less than that. The kid needs help, he's being cut from that shit and followed by educators. And no, that's not "police custody".

The boy is now in residential care without access to social networks, with specialized educators and regular visitation rights for his parents, the prosecutor told AP.

Imagine if children found stories of a man being abused by an entire crowd, stripped naked, and nailed to a cross he was forced to carry. Also he was alive when nailed. We should detain those children too.

Yes, this is true

The kid is in police custody because the parents royally screwed up. Your kid doesn't casually get into thousands of jihadist videos, bomb-making recipes, etc without the parents being complicit or completely negligent. I hope the parents understand where they messed up and social services can help rescue what's left of his life before he goes and does something incredibly stupid.
