Was told by what I consider a very reliable source very recently that the independent investigation is concluding. If that investigation indicates no crime was committed, then there will be school discipline. If it concludes a crime was committed, that will result a legal process going forward. Regardless, my source has reasons to expect that the entire process will be concluded by the 1st of Dec.
Again, if the more severe narrative is true, then I can see why good ole Carl from channel 8 is sniffing around - but I don't think it is completely true. If Carl wants to do a hit piece, he can interview a purveyor of that narrative, he will get "no comment" from the school district, and the implication is what it is. But if he does journalism, he would need to interview witnesses and the only ones free to do that would be players or their parents, and I would strongly caution against that.
The press has a story to sell and they tend to edit any remarks you make to support the story they are telling. At best they will take a less than full context comment to meet the need of appearing to give the other side. Without corroboration, the story will (or should) die because it will not have a rebuttal to the assertion or validation of the story due the privacy protections afforded to the minors involved. FWIW
