Yeah, the title of the thread falsely implies that there’s some plausible reason to think this actually happened. ---

It’s saying the same thing because it’s not another source. It does at least link to the WCDispatch article, but all it has other than that is that the school district is investigating. Which is a good thing: Of course they should be investigating. If they weren’t investigating, even based on an allegation this unreliable, that’d be cause for concern. ---
