OP, I think you were leveled.

You think the prof was leveling a kid who claimed to have just lost his grandmother?

The grandmother dying is one of the oldest college lies. I got the short end of that lie my second year of college. Another student used it earlier in the semester and it turned out to be false. The kid was local and the professor couldn't find the obituary in the paper. D'OH! My grandma died two days before the final and he was an ass about it because of the other kid.

The professor probably felt that OP was lying and called him out on it. It's win-win for him. If OP's grandma did die, then great. If the professor knew OP was full of [censored] then the professor wins:

I never felt so badly or guilty as I did when I left his office.

Don't you think that a professor who had lost his wife recently would have let his class know?
