Starr testified in front of the grand jury for three hours, giving answers to lots of specific questions. Two weeks pass, and no one knows when they will get an answer regarding a possible grand jury indictment of Officer 115.

When Starr arrives at school, she sees Maya and Hailey talking. Hailey confronts Starr, calling her a liar. She figured out that Starr knew Khalil and that both Maya and Hailey met him at Starr’s 12th birthday party. Hailey wants an explanation and an apology.

Instead, Maya and Starr confront her about her racist behavior. She gets defensive, telling them that they should both get over it. She tells Starr to get over Khalil’s death because he was a drug dealer, so it was only a matter of time before he died. When she says “the cop probably did everyone a favor. One less drug dealer,” Starr punches her in the side of the face (341).

Hailey’s brother Remy steps in to try to stop Starr, but Seven gets involved and fights Remy. Security guards break up the fight, and both Starr and Seven are sent home. Hailey’s father demanded Starr’s expulsion, but the headmaster suspends Starr instead.
