Hardin passionately denies he leaked report on Wallace Hall to news media

Special counsel’s contract has expired; says he doesn’t know what the committee will do

In no uncertain terms, the former special counsel to the committee looking into articles of impeachment against UT System Regent Wallace Hall said that he had nothing to do with the publication of his report on the matter in the press.

"I passionately deny that we leaked that or wanted it leaked," famed attorney Rusty Hardin said on Thursday afternoon. “I just wanted the committee to have it so they can do their work.”
