And I had to leave out my own personal story on the strange things that happen when a person is injured. But one was nadin and the other a nurse.

Yes, it's altogether possible he was swearing his head off, for the reasons given there. And in my own experiences, people that are injured don't always cry or beg for help or be quiet.

In fact, they resist strongly such things. For their own reasons. So don't fall into CT land, because this will come to trial in a few months as everyone recovers.

At that stage of this saga, there will be in place the rules of evidence, laws against perjury, and the best defense that can be made to save this teenager. It's the right thing to do. No words said on the media or online will change anything at the trial.
