Paul told his side of the story to Quinn, which was a very different account than Rashad’s side of the story.Does Paul truly believe his side of the story to be true, or is Paul simply trying to cover himself so he doesn’t look like the bad guy?Pg.207-246

The police officer who took a misunderstanding as an excuse to beat a high school boy nearly to death, so badly he stays hospitalized for most of the novel. Paul is Quinn's mentor and friend, and he's also Guzzo's older brother, one of Quinn's best friends. I don't think Paul believes his own story. He is perhaps even trying to convince himself.
