Can't help but feel like there's way more to this story that we don't know about.

If he had rope burns on his neck bad enough for the LLM to see, how didn't his parents notice?

The marks were probably quite faint, and if you ask a multimodal LLM "can you see that big mark on my neck?" it will frequently say "yes" even if your neck doesn't have a mark on it.
