Justice? A kid was allegedly murdered and the crime ignored / covered up. In the right situation, that's all you need. See George Floyd as an example.

    it wasn't very well explained from the article, especially since it seemed to hint that a fellow schoolmate might be involved. Never mentioned the cops taking part so I just don't see why they would bother trying to cover things up
