Did you read the update? Is that plausible?
“UPDATE: Etheridge’s office puts out a statement from Ben Greene, retired principal of Pinecrest High School in Southern Pines, North Carolina, who served in the post in 1996:
The story in today’s Pilot is inaccurate. I witnessed the event firsthand 14 years ago. The student was in the wrong, and Bob Etheridge acted appropriately at all times. I would have been happy to tell the newspaper reporter the facts in this matter, but I was never contacted before the story appeared in the newspaper.

He remembers this from 14 years ago and nothing happened?
