DA seeking access into investigation of Baylor

The McLennan County district attorney's office in Waco, Texas, has asked Baylor for full access to Pepper Hamilton's investigation of the university's handling of allegations of sexual assault committed by students, including Bears football players, ESPN has learned.

Sources told ESPN that the district attorney's office has relayed an informal request to Baylor officials for access to the information from the Pepper Hamilton investigation. The DA's office is seeking to determine if the findings contain evidence of any additional crimes by student-athletes, sources said.

Prosecutors also want to know if there is evidence of criminal conduct by Baylor coaches, faculty or staff in connection with sexual assaults by students.
