When a school resource officer later heard about the assault, the case was passed to youth detectives, who interviewed the student. The student recanted the story, sources said.
This is a middle-school student who said he was shoved. Like many on the thread, myself included, we assumed at least a serious and devastating sexual accusation and it was not. The guy snapped over relatively nothing.
Yeah, I was picturing something a lot more serious as well. I was surprised to read the actual circumstances.
I also think it's a sign of the times that there had to be three investigations. For something this minor the school district investigation should be enough.
