He understands very well what can be caused by this, because he was a dysfunctional teenager. And then he decides to nominate his candidacy for the post of mayor instead of the current thoroughly corrupt swindler, of course, he has little chance, his students are a support group, but he has to refuse this in exchange for protecting the same guy who committed this time the murder.
