A teacher molesting a student. Standard. What about yours?

I've got a lighter story to add to the thread. One girl in my school apparently wrote a letter to the parents of one of her friends, saying a bunch of stuff about her, slagging her off etc.

Nobody outside her group of friends knew (or cared) about it, but the teachers decided to hold an assembly about it, not mentioning any details but saying "if you know anything about this, talk to us". Of course the Streisand effect came into force and we were all talking and speculating about it. I'm still not fully sure of the details, and I find it crazy how the teachers decided that this drama between friends needed to be blown up into a big Incident.
