(From the movie "Roadhouse", "Be nice, until it's time not to be nice", which apparently the covering official had determined it was NOT time, to escalate which most certainly would have made things WORSE.
The job requires being the "calm in the storm", not the lightening or God forbid "the thunder". The ONLY person who KNOWS, the extent, of what actually transpired is the official involved, and he made HIS judgment.
We can ALWAYS escalate, when WE decide it's time, and there's good reason, "not to be nice".
