On December 1st the Elkhart Police Department interviewed two Memorial High School wrestlers who said that he saw a video on Iannarelli's iPad. The video was of students undressed and showering in the West Side Middle school locker room.
Court documents say Iannarelli was recorded placing the iPad in a locker in the West Side Middle School locker room.
