Tobias Erin Rogers is a boy from a dysfunctional family with an alcoholic father who is often bullied at school for Tourette Syndrome and is teasingly referred to as "Ticci Toby." As you learned recently, his older sister died in a car accident, so he looked completely depressed. And so, one day when you were skipping a lesson in the school yard, you noticed him. A little shabby, apparently from another meeting with bullies. There was an abrasion on the cheek.
