Rat
Perhaps Queens had a different definition of rat than Brooklyn, but when I was young you couldn't get ratted out if you hadn't done anything.
It would have been an admission of guilt and never admitted to in front of anyone in authority or that would punish you for your horrible crime. Now my crimes as a child were mostly infractions of parental rules and the penalties were not terribly severe.
Most people learn not to put things in print or speech that could be used against them.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
