On November 22, 2024, SRO Larson was working at South Jr. High School in the City of St. Cloud, Minnesota when he responded to an abuse complaint. The student involved was Child A, fully identified in the police reports, who was under the age of 18. Child A reported that on the previous evening, her mother, Arquette Shada Wilson, [DOB REDACTED], the defendant herein, had administered a "whooping" for missing class. Child A reported that the defendant ordered Child A to pull her pants down and struck Child A approximately 20 times on her bare legs while Child A was bent over the bed.
This occurred at their residence on County Road 6 in the City of St. Cloud, County of Stearns, State of Minnesota. Child A also reported that the defendant used a belt when she struck her.
