Yes - let them sit with a DV detective as he/ gets a 3rd party call about purported events, stale in time, wholly uncorroborated, and all of which were alleged to take place outside of said LEO's investigative jurisdiction!  That's what happened here - allow them to experience the situation for what it was. Maybe an equally effective punishment would be to have them sit in a circle with a bunch of 4th-graders, as they play 'telephone' and hope that the 'secret whisper' makes it all the way around.
