I just started reading this thread so I apologize if this question sounds stupid...but are they really saying that he "accidentally" fell into a gym mat upside down to get a shoe??? If it were me and I lost my shoe, I would not try to get it out by going upside down in one of those mats....I'd let the shoe go, tell the PE teacher, a coach, principal, someone, before I'd dive in to get it...but thats just me and my opinion. I dont think this kid died "accidentally"...so tragic
I agree. Who would think they would fit into that hole? You don't accidently fall into a hole that small. Someone rolled him up in it and left him. Maybe they thought it was a joke and didn't realize the consequences. JMO
