It is safe to presume
The young official was in over her head and probably felt as if she "deserved" the verbal abuse.
I recall those first few games and realize that I certainly should have T'd the coaches, but was not comfortable with what the threshold was.
I also know that I have much "thicker" skin than the typical official, (I teach in a Juvenile Prison) so I am one who does not T nearly as often as other officials. I am working on being more consistent with the local threshold.
