So, what if he *threatens* to accuse someone of abuse, when that abuse
has really happened? He gets suspended and his parents notified, and
*then* an investigation occurs? Given, it seems that he has created
this situation for himself, but I'm not convinced that this is such a
good thing. Then again, if he really were abused, he'd probably
welcome the suspension, rather than having to be around the abuser.
