The man was happy that his son confessed his guilt and so the others were .......?

A
implicated
B
accused
C
punished
D
exonerated
Ask EduPadi AI for a Detailed Answer
Correct Option: D

The best word to complete the sentence is "exonerated". The sentence implies that since the son confessed, the others were found not guilty or free from blame.

  • Exonerated means to be cleared of guilt or blame.
  • Implicated means to be involved in a crime or wrongdoing, which doesn't fit the context.
  • Accused means to be charged with a crime or wrongdoing, which is also not the best fit.
  • Punished implies that the others had done something wrong, which contradicts the fact that the son confessed.
