It's a case we've been following closely, the death of 9-year-old Savannah Hardin.
Investigators say Savannah died after her grandmother allegedly ran her to death as punishment for eating a candy bar. Her stepmother was also arrested for not stepping in and stopping the punishment.
Today we are going to find out whether or not Judge Allen Millican will unseal court documents pertaining to Savannah's death. On Thursday he issued a court order sealing certain documents, which could contain information about Savannah and certain family members. Judge Millican sealed them until he had a chance to review them.
Both the prosecution and defense have said all along they don't want this case tried in the media, so it's unclear if we will ever see those documents until this case goes to trial.
Jessica Hardin, Savannah's stepmother and Joyce Garrard, Jessica's grandmother are behind bars at the Etowah County Jail on a $500,000 cash bond.
