When Mike Parker's girlfriend shows up at school with a bruise on her face, she walks into the principal's office and said Mike hit her. The students have questions. Why did she go to the principal and not the police? Why did she stay so long if he was hurting her? Obviously, if it's true, Mike should be expelled. But is it true?
