Question

My 20 year old son may be expelled or suspended from the Univ. of Montevallo in Alabama, because my son stated he wanted to beat a fellow student up to other people. WHY??? The other student filed a false police report against my son and admitted it. The campus police would not let the student retract the statement. My son was just letting off steam and no time was there a real physical threat. Univ of Montevallo has a zero tolerance policy to verbal threats etc. My son is a good kid but made 2 stupid offences already. My son is in error but would not be having this hearing if the other student had not filed a false report. No criminal charges filed against my son. But he will lose this semester of college $$$ receive zero for good grades and if suspended not be able to apply other colleges until suspension is over. Life is not fair but my son will pay a heavy price for this. What can be done? He has already been kicked out of the Dorm for this. We saw report on Monday 2 NOV and his hearing is 5 NOV.
