In the United States, a tattoo artist faces a year in prison for having tattooed a 10-year-old boy with his mother’s permission. According to information reported by the American media New York Times it is a name Austin Smith who was arrested at the same time as the boy’s mother. The photo of the tattoo was in fact relaunched on social networks. The young tattoo artist is accused of having subjected a child to an activity deemed inappropriate.
The nurse calls the police
The mother for her part explained the authorization given by the fact that she was unaware of the definitive nature of this tattoo. The school would have been informed by the boy. He allegedly approached the nurse to get petroleum jelly for his tattoo. It was then that the nurse called the police. New York State law does not allow a child under the age of 18 to get a tattoo with or without parental permission.
