'AGT' kid magicians The Rocketts arrested amid heated custody battle - New York Post

Nov 27, 2020

Brother and sister Kadan and Brooklyn Rockett — who wowed Simon Cowell in the “AGT” semifinals back in 2016 — were arrested last week in Farmerville, Louisiana, for refusing to go with police who were attempting to return them to their mom, TMZ reported.

A Missouri judge ordered the heated handoff in the ongoing custody battle with their father.

Kadan, 15, and Brooklyn, 13, have reportedly been living with their dad in California for years.

Local law enforcement sources told the outlet they had paperwork authorizing the transfer of the children, which stemmed from a 2019 court order issued by a Missouri judge.

“I’m asking you to go — or you will be arrested.” When they don’t immediately respond, the officer jerks Kadan by the arm and slaps cuffs on him as Brooklyn sobs and wipes away tears!

There was a similar incident with the kids and Missouri police in October 2019.

Kadan and Brooklyn, who were in Louisiana for their grandma’s funeral at the time of the arrest, were held at the Green Oaks Detention Center in Monroe overnight

A family court judge sealed the records — but the kids are back with their pops for now
