Carmack alleged he was beaten and stabbed by a group of Michigan State athletes. Several MSU hockey players, Therese Kerr, Carmack’s ex-girlfriend, and other witnesses testified against him in a preliminary hearing held in November, MLive reported.
According to a police report, Carmack entered the house Kerr was in on Aug. 28 and attempted to choke her until MSU hockey players and other men present intervened. Carmack also assaulted those men, MLive reported.
