So they set up a fake kidnapping, threatened him, tied him up, told him he'd never see his parents again, that he'd be nailed to a wall in a shed and more. For 4 hours they did this. When he told school authorities what had happened to him, the 4 idiots were arrested and the child placed in protective custody. The boy learned that, sometimes, the biggest most screwed up monsters in your life are those you call mommy and daddy and grandma. Hopefully the boy is permanently rescued from these maniacs and they spend many long years in prison.

Ugh. What a story.
