If Evelyn is charged for criminal negligence being a friend to Anna,
so should Matthew Bates. I can't remember now but I believe I was
asking for help as they were in proximity, all of them in the same State.
And possibly have met each other before.
I apologize my assumption is wrong, or my memory.
But I recall calling him "Mr Bates", and talking about student (myself)
being harassed in school, as a metaphor. Ignored, my requests.
He was clearly aware of the abuse that was going on and callously watched
for whatever perspective favoring these people.
