Respectfully, you're not a cop, you're not the Gestapo. Don't try playing one. The best you should be able to do is throw them out. You don't need a breathalyzer for that, just throw them out.
On what basis? With what evidence? Upon what "due process"?

Clearly you have not lived the atmosphere of fear/intimidation in today's
public) shools, the total powerlessness of the classroom teacher to deal
with discipline issues, and the administration's concern with lawyers and
suffocating layers of policy more than either the teachers or the "good" kids.

That's a sweeping statement to be sure. But fairly accurate.
It also the reason for the rise in private, parochial and home schools.
...and teacher burnout outside of them. Look up the numbers.

As to not being a "cop...."
"Not my responsibility" is the saddest phrase in the English language.
