    "Because the teachers thought the seniors' prank was funny, it resulted neither in severe punishment nor letting them off scot-free," is wrong because of the "letting."

    Parallelism is the use of pieces in a sentence that are similar in sound, meaning, etc. The - ing in "letting" isn't similar with the rest of the sentence.
