Trial set for MSU student from Saline accused of assault and filing false report
Brandon Carmack
East Lansing Police Department
A trial is scheduled to begin on Jan. 28 for the 20-year-old Saline man accused of assaulting his ex-girlfriend at a party and then lying to police about what actually transpired there, MLive reports.
Michigan State University student Brandon Carmack appeared Wednesday before an Ingham County judge for a pretrial hearing when the date was set.
Carmack initially claimed MSU hockey players beat him up at a gathering in East Lansing, but police later alleged he was the aggressor and he was charged with assault and battery and filing a false police report, MLive reported.
Carmack is charged with two counts of assault and battery, domestic assault and battery, filing a false police report of a felony, first-degree home invasion and stalking.

I am giving this dude the benefit of the doubt until the trial is over. A lot of things about the published stories do not add up. We are to believe that he attacked his girlfriend, while intoxicated, and in the presence of her friends on the msu male hockey team. While that is within the realm of possibility, it would be exceptionally poor judgement. If we are to believe his side of the story, then the hockey players viciously attacked him, and then tried to excuse the attack on him. He says he was telephoned by the GF to appear at the "hockey house". Will the police have any record of that call at trial? Perhaps the truth is somewhere in between.

This case has a much happier ending than the UofV Yeardley Love coed murder. Sorry kid, time to pay for being a menace to society.
