I think it is wrong to inject an accusation of cheating in this manner. As far as a copy from scenario, that would involve two "cheaters."

Unless the teacher left the room it was her role to observe for possible cheating during the test.

If cheating is suspected "fool me once" mode should kick in.

It's February. How could a teacher not know who was copying from whom?
