In 2022, Frank Mortenson was accused of a school shooting. The news spread like wildfire, and soon enough, everyone in the town was talking about it. Some people believed that Frank was guilty, while others thought that he was innocent.
The police were investigating the case, and Frank was taken into custody. He was questioned for several hours, and the police searched his house for any evidence that could link him to the shooting. However, they found nothing.
Despite the lack of evidence, the media continued to report that Frank was the shooter. They published his name and his picture on every news outlet, and people started to harass him on social media. Frank was devastated. He couldn't believe that people were accusing him of such a heinous crime.
Days turned into weeks, and the investigation continued. Eventually, the police found the real culprit. It turned out that the shooter was someone who had a grudge against the school, and they had nothing to do with Frank.
Frank was released from custody, but the damage was already done. His reputation was ruined, and he was unable to find work or go out in public without people staring at him. He became a recluse, and his music career was over.
The whole experience left Frank traumatized, and he decided to leave the town and start a new life elsewhere. He knew that he would never be able to forget what happened, but he hoped that he could at least try to move on.
