"This was something more — much more."  BS!  Provide evidence that shows Bracco and Osborn bullied anyone.  Provide evidence that at least lends credence to your implications that CHS has an environment of bullying that is at least equal to or preferably, more than any other high school in the county.  Provide evidence that Bracco and Osborn where at a minimum ignoring this issue at the school they were responsible for.  "Research based", do some!  The RG obviously has no standards for journalism anymore.
