People Recount Funny & Traumatic Times They Were Wrongly Accused As Kids
There's plenty of injustice in the world. Every day, people are wrongly convicted for crimes they didn't commit. But while adults at least have due process to protect them to a certain extent, children aren't always extended the same respect. In elementary school, it's one kid's word against another, and adults can arbitrarily pick who they believe if they feel like skipping the whole due process thing.
When comedian @itsnashflynn told a story about how she got in trouble as a kid for an egg-related incident she had no involvement in, the tweet inspired a long thread of similar anecdotes—some hilarious, others kind of upsetting. Keep scrolling for the best stories we collected from the thread.

This teacher sounds like a real life Miss Trunchbull. Who can treat kids this way unless they really hate kids?
