A Federal Judge ruled Friday afternoon that Baylor University must turn over the majority of information gleaned from the Pepper-Hamilton investigation into charges of widespread mishandling of sexual assault allegations made against Baylor football players and other students.
Recordings and notes will be turned over to defense attorney Jim Dunnam, who is representing 10 anonymous women who say there were raped while at Baylor. The University had fought to keep the information secret, claiming that the documents were privileged information concerning legal work Pepper Hamilton was doing for the small, private Baptist school. The Judge ruled that Baylor could not make the case of privilege since portions of the report have been made public.
