HENRY COUNTY: A recent Henry County Grand Jury has issued indictments on an incident which is have occurred at Hardridge Creek Campground.
The Henry County Grand Jury indicted Judson Walter Buchanan and Mason Cole Battles for Assault 1st degree and Robbery 1st degree.
The two were charged with Attempted Murder and Robbery 1st. In a preliminary hearing on Battles, Henry County District Court Judge Derek Peterson reduced the charges on Battles to Assault and Robbery. Buchanan waived the preliminary hearing but the Grand Jury reduced the charges on Buchanan also.
The next court proceedings will be an arraignment and then the case will be set for trial.
While the state case is progressing, agents from the FBI are conducting an investigation. The involvement of the FBI is because the incident occurred on Corp of Engineer property.
