Public Pressure
Facing intense backlash from the online community, and from the parents of their own students, the school was forced to hire a third party to investigate the matter. The investigation concluded that yes, in fact, the school was in the wrong. Jimmy and his wife were elated!
They thought that with this verdict, the school would be forced to reprimand the teacher who did this! The family was just about ready to put this whole matter behind them, when they were hit with a bombshell that would ruin everything! The punishment the third party recommended, was certainly not fitting of the crime.
