Documents & Evidence

Materials

Every record and image this archive is built on, in one place. Nothing here originates with this site — each item is a public record or published reporting, linked to where it was released.

Not available yet
  • Court filings — no formal charges had been filed as of September 25, 2026.
  • Photographs of the two arrested students — none has been released by police or the university.
  • University disciplinary outcome — the conduct office investigation was still open.
  • Photos or video from inside the basement — only the blurred image MPD released.

Items are added only when they come from police records, the university or published reporting.
