“#’AGT’ kid magicians The Rocketts strip<\/a> searched before jail: neighbor<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Two kid magicians arrested by cops in Louisiana for refusing to return to their mother as part of a bitter custody battle were strip searched before being placed alone in separate jail cells for two nights, their friend and neighbor told The Post.<\/p>\n

Brother and sister duo Kadan, 15, and Brooklyn Rockett, 13, \u2014 who wowed Simon Cowell<\/a> in the \u201cAGT\u201d semifinals back in 2016 \u2014 were unable to pull a Houdini and escape what they told friends was a scary stay in a roach-infested juvenile detention center<\/a> near where their relatives live in Lillie, Louisiana.<\/p>\n

It was the second time the Rockett teens landed behind bars on orders from a Missouri judge overseeing the custody battle.<\/p>\n

The pair were taken away in handcuffs in separate police cars from their grandfather\u2019s home on Nov. 18, after crying and saying they did not feel safe returning to their mother, Kami Lyn Rockett, who lives in Utah. Their mother was reportedly waiting at the sheriff\u2019s department to retrieve them and bring them back home to Utah but they went to jail instead.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt just broke my heart,\u201d said Emily Truman, 45, who was one of several neighbors who witnessed the teens\u2019 arrest. \u201cThe cop was so rough with Kadan \u2014 and Brooklyn was so upset she was sobbing and just losing it. I was so ashamed. I\u2019ve lived here in Union Parish all my life, and I\u2019ve seen a lot of things, but I\u2019ve never seen anything like what happ<\/a>ened to these kids.\u201d<\/p>\n

Truman said the teens came by to see her after their ordeal. They had returned to Louisiana briefly after the death of their grandmother but normally live with their father in LA.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cThey told me they were terrified,\u201d Truman said. \u201cThey were completely alone in two different cells, stripped, searched and made to take a shower. Brooklyn said she cried the whole time.\u201d<\/p>\n

But the kids had some prior experience behind bars. According to a police report filed in Forsyth, Missouri,\u00a0 last year that was obtained by The Blaze<\/a>, the kids accused Taney County Judge Eric Eighmy of illegally locking them up in two courthouse holding cells for part of the day after a custody hearing with both parents present.<\/p>\n

Eighmy, who could not be reached for comment, had allegedly lectured the teens on his distaste for them being \u201cHollywood kids.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kami Rockett did not return a call from The Post.<\/p>\n

The Rocketts are still in Louisiana, for the time being.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe kids are doing great and are staying strong during this tough time,\u201d Bart Rockett told The Post. \u201cThey\u2019re straight \u2018A\u2019 students in advanced classes and will graduate early. They\u2019ve traveled 40 countries. I support their right to have their voices heard.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rockett as well as his lawyer, Dhu Thompson, could not comment further because of the gag order imposed on the case, but Rockett did refer to the saga as an \u201cinsane nightmare\u201d on his Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It was unclear what, if anything, the kids were charged with after being arrested but sources said nothing will appear on their records.<\/p>\n

Truman has started a GoFundMe page<\/a> for the kids in which she claimed the Missouri Supreme Court ruled Judge Eighmy was wrong in his rulings and issuance of his orders and ordered him off the case. Eighmy was once the personal attorney for Bart Rockett\u2019s mother until they had a falling out.<\/p>\n

Bart and Kami Rockett divorced in 2009. Bart Rockett is also a magician and illusionist and for a while had his own theater in Branson, Missouri. His former wife was a dancer in Branson. Rockett and his kids have lived in LA for the past decade.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
