To be clear, I’m not absolving Nico of blame nor disagreeing with how Tennessee handled it.
Two things can be true at once:
1) Nico is in the wrong and learned a tough life lesson. He was greedy and it cost him.
2) He’s still just 20-years old and clearly was not surrounded by a strong support system necessary to keep him from making bad decisions like this.
Nico can be wrong, and this situation can still be sad. Which, to me at least, it is. None of this had to happen like this. He’ll he regretting this for the rest of his life.
