David became the town hero due to his success as a writer and becoming a bit of a celebrity. 2. Given Roscoe's reputation as a kid anybody other than David could have ratted him out.

* TearJerker: How everything spiralled out of control. [[spoiler: Roscoe took to bullying David because that was the only way he knew to bond. Dave's childhood was ruined and he wanted to get Roscoe out of his life by any means necessary. Roscoe then stole the Moon Rock because he wanted to become an astronaut. Dave reported him to the authorities not just because it was the right thing to do and he wanted to be the hero, but to deal with him once and for all. But Roscoe was abandoned by his parents and would up in an orphanage and from there to what was basically a prison for kids. When Dave came back in town, things escalated and Roscoe tried to kill Dave, which ended up in Dave seemingly killing him. When Roscoe turns up alive, the two start fighting again and are about to kill each other before their kids intervene. It's even more poignant that they couldn't let go of the grudge when their kids could, and that the fathers never even realized they had ruined each other's life until much later.]]
