Carl Granderson – Noteworthy
Former University of Wyoming football standout Carl Granderson has been charged with sexual assault, according to a university statement. According to the school, charges of third-degree sexual assault and sexual battery were filed against Granderson this week in Albany County Circuit Court stemming from an off-campus incident that occurred after the season. In response to public records requests seeking files on the case, the Star-Tribune was informed by circuit court clerks as well as the Albany County Attorney’s Office that Wyoming law requires the case to be transferred to district court before charges are released publicly. A circuit court clerk said the case had not been bound over as of Thursday afternoon. According to the court, Granderson is being represented in the case through Pence and MacMillan, a law firm with offices in Laramie, Cheyenne and Sheridan. However, a circuit court clerk could not specify which attorney at the firm is representing Granderson. A message left Thursday with the firm’s Laramie office seeking comment was not returned Thursday. – Davis Potter, Casper Star-Tribune
