A judge in Dallas found Ronald Jackson not guilty Tuesday, citing insufficient evidence.
Grand Prairie police arrested Jackson a few hours after he commandeered his daughter’s cellphone and refused to return it. The 36-year-old father says a text he found on the phone was rude.

Never should have seen the inside of a courtroom.
The parent is still the parent - until the child comes of age!
Good for him, the Judge, Mohter, and daughter.
3:17, the mother is the one that accused the father of theft. She is the one that needs help.
Tough love hurts, doesn't it? Consider my taking your phone away a social time-out, one that you deserved. Behave, according to my socially acceptable rules and you can have it back.
3:48...this is 3:17. Good for the Mother that she bought the phone and lost it. She should have backed the father, at least in front of the child.
The mother may have had an agenda.
Check your kids phone my child had a weirdo contacting her
Judicial overreact?
4:18, sorry I misunderstood! Yes, parents should always be a united front for a child, even if they are not together anymore!
There should have never been an indictment to begin with. Talk about a complete waste of taxpayer money and court time when bigger cases wait for years to be heard... this is clearly judicial abuse and the state should be held accountable for this ever coming to trial in the first place.
Furthermore, the side not discussed is the inflated empowerment for kids, thinking they can not criminally charge their parents for parenting. As for the mother, she should be reprimanded by the judge for this obvious retaliatory act, trying to undermine the father's stature with his daughter. Parents, when battling, often abusive use their kids as collateral damage to exact revenge rather than teach children respect for both.
Whomever the State Attorney that decided to go forth with this should be fired - regardless of whether he/she is elected or appointed. This is clearly abusing the system and giving the green light for kids to disrespect their parents and not live by the rules - correlating to not living by rules when they become adults.
This sounds like something my ex will do, but guess what I am the dad and I have joint custody. Try it with me and I will make your life miserable. You and your new husband will be locked up because I have the goods on you!
That he had to defend himself against this is abominable. He is the TWELVE year old's father. It seems pretty small action to me. If she were my daughter, it'd be a cold day somewhere before she got that phone back.
Do a little research and read the full story. The daughter had nothing to do with the charges. It was the mother and she lied.
