UPDATE: A Hamilton County judge has decided to release transcripts of witness testimony from the Grand Jury investigation of the Carmel High School battery case. However, only participants involved in the current legal battle will have access to them.
A formal request was made by an attorney representing one of the former students and basketball players, Brandon Hoge. He believes witness statements will help him determine if there are any discrepancies between what witnesses told police versus what they told the Grand Jury.
The Grand Jury investigation eventually resulted in four former students charged with misdemeanor battery charges for their role in attacking a classmate.
