The front cover of the daily newspaper read:
SPARTA STUDENT FOUND DEAD, AUTOPSY POINTS TO DBQ AS CAUSE OF DEATH
An unnamed student was found and later pronounced dead on Monday morning October 29th. She was just 15 years old.
The police investigated the household for nearly the whole evening until they discovered a rough draft of a Document Based Question, a.k.a DBQ. Dr. Chen, a pathologist, believes this caused the death of the teen.
“There’s not much to debate. [Double D] even said the assignment stood for ‘Death By Question’ several times during class [last year]. It was an accident waiting to happen, there’s not much we could have done to prevent this."
