Various parties are in the midst of legal proceedings seeking to force the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department (MNPD) to release the writings of Audrey Hale and other related documents concerning her assault on the Covenant School in March, including concerned citizens, nonprofit groups, media organizations, and even state legislators.
