I don't think there is any indication that either the 7 year old fellow student nor his grandmother is lying to get "fame". They spoke one time to get the information out there. They have not "licensed photos" of the boys together to get money from media, nor made the rounds of the cable news shows to keep their faces in the media, as we have seen MANY other times with family members and so called friends of victims families. The boy was allowed to speak ONCE to tell what he knew, that's all. There is a very good chance that LE is not mentioning this child's statement in order to PROTECT that child and others from a media onslaught that would taint their testimony later. That child is no less a credible witness than the teacher(s) and may be more reliable as he has no interest in trying to protect himself from liability for this incident, as does the teacher.

It would really be nice to know if T's account is factual and not confused w/ another day. That could really open up a lot of other possibilities as well as squash some possibilities. Was T not alarmed when Kyron never came back to class? Did he try to mention it again to the teacher only to be ignored?
Had T told his story to the school and LE and the grandmother felt it was not taken seriously? If so, that could be the reason they spoke out. That statement could very well clear TH.
I would love to know what the teacher has said regarding T's statement!
