I agree that the parents are primarily responsible, and I hope this leads to more emphasis on holding parents accountable for the actions of their kids, but I still think given the reaction from the school, they could have suspended the student based on their recommendation of counseling, and if there are more concerns, call the cops and report the incident.
It sorta seems like there is a long history here which is why they were obviously clued into that something was going on.
The school still did an admirable job given the circumstances, so maybe this will bring some more awareness to perhaps their inability to suspend the student if they have concerns and not face liability.
