Am I the jerk for yelling at a kid after my sweatshirt got thrown in a urinal and trash can?

I accidentally left my sweatshirt in the school bathroom because I’m pretty forgetful sometimes. Later, after class, I heard someone say there was a black sweatshirt in the trash can, so I checked and it was mine. It was soaking wet because apparently it had been put in the urinal before being thrown away.

A kid at school said he didn’t do it and that he only took it out of the urinal and put it in the trash. But my friend was in the bathroom at the same time and said the sweatshirt was dry when the kid was holding it. My friend went into a stall, and when he came back out, the sweatshirt was suddenly wet, and then the kid handed it to another kid who threw it away.

This sweatshirt means a lot to me because it’s from a special ski trip my parents save up for every year, and they only sell that design once, so I probably can’t replace it.

During gym later that day, I got really angry and got mad at the kid at because I thought even throwing it away instead of telling a teacher was messed up. Some people said I overreacted and that he “wasn’t going to carry it to lost and found,” but I feel like there were way better options than putting it in the trash.

But my friend was in the bathroom was the same time he was he didn’t know it was my sweatshirt, but he’s pretty sure that he saw it dry when they had it and then he went into the stall he came out and it was wet and then he gave it to another kid but then he left the bath and everyone else is super biased cause I’m one of the loser kids three friends sits at the Lamo table. Meanwhile, there are the football kids, and everyone believes them.

So am I the jerk?

Update my friend was in the bathroom at the time and he said that he saw them pee on it too, so I had to bring it home and detox it and clean it about three times
