And the police's answer to me was, Senator, we did all we could. And when you're dealing with a minor, the parents have to be asked if they can interview the minor. And that phone call was made, and that parent chose not to allow an interview to happen. And so those are
dealings with a residential school asmsa is is more like a college because of the fact that that they deal with residential. And to Co-Chair Gasway's question about the sexual allegations, when I heard that at first, I went straight to the police.
