So I decided I wouldn't write what I'd been told by multiple people representing every angle of the case until the charges had been decided by a jury. The most egregious and explosive accusation against Batey has never been made public until now.
Indeed, there has been a year-long court battle in the state over unsealing these investigative records.
In the initial investigative report into the rape, which has still not been unsealed, Batey was accused of urinating on his white victim while saying, "That's for 300 years of slavery, bitch."http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/outkick-the-coverage/two-former-vanderbilt-football-players-guilty-of-rape-012815It was a charge so explosive that prosecutors, defense attorneys, and judges all decided it couldn't be made public or even introduced as evidence at trial. Batey denied ever making the comment, but it's included in the investigative record and it's a detail that would have overtaken everything about the case.
Wow, just wow!!!
