By refusing Ms Jane to breastfeed her infant, Mr. Stubbornman violated not only the Florida jurisdiction, but also the right of the infant to be nourished when he was in need. The security guard and the store, however, can justify their position in detaining Ms Jane initially, in order to determine whether there was any case of shoplifting. The defendants should refer to the Florida Statute of 811.022, which provides that "[a] peace officer, or a merchant, or a merchant's employee who has probably cause for believing that goods held for sale by the merchant have been unlawfully taken by a person and that he can recover them by taking the person into custody, may, for the purpose of attempting to effect such recovery, take the person into custody and detain him in a reasonable manner for reasonable length of time" (Jefferson Stores, Inc. v. Caudell, 1969). But whether the security guards acted in a reasonable manner and detained the suspect for a reasonable length of time should be decided by jury. And while the defendants can justify their initial detainment of Ms Jane to determine whether she had shoplifted, they have no justification for refusing her to breastfeed her infant son.

As a result of this experience, Ms Jane went through a psychological trauma and undergone a psychological and psychiatric treatment. It needs to be determined by the child's doctors if he has also experienced any trauma as a consequence of Mr. Stubbornman's actions....

In the meantime, Ms Jane should prevail in this case and Mr. Stubbornman and the Tel-Mart store must pay substantial compensation to cover Ms Jane's medical expenses and pay the family for moral damage inflicted upon them. If it is determined by doctors that the infant son also needs special treatment because of Mr. Stubbornman's refusal to allow Ms Jane to breastfeed him in a timely manner, Mr. Youknow should also demand that additional compensation be paid to pay for the infant's expenses. The Court of Florida should also reprimand the Tel-Mart store for inducing its security officials to detain customers unnecessarily.
