Maybe the “angry and insisting” part needs to come first? How about this:
- Son is removed from class and meets with math teacher and 2 homeroom teachers.
- Son is asked if he cheated.
- Son says no.
- Son is explained the ramifications of cheating, and asked again if he cheated.
- Son says no, again.
- Son is getting upset and anxious.
- Teacher says he doesn't believe him, and is asked again if he cheated.
- Son says no, again.
- Son starts to sweat. More anxiety.
- Son is asked "how did you get the answer then?"
- Son tries to explain but explanation is not accepted.
- Son breaks down emotionally.
- Son is asked again if he cheated. Son says no.
- "Good" cop enters the conversation. "You know this will go easier for you if you just be honest." "We're not going to do anything to you. Just be honest." "You cheated, didn't you."
- Son says "yes."
- Questioning stops and son is relieved, but continues to sob.
