Ennis said the agreement was reached with Bryan Brinyark and another associate with his Tuscaloosa firm Brinyark, Lee, Hickman & Hocutt, P.C. Josh Swords, a former UA football player who works with the firm, was not involved in the discussions, Ennis said. Swords has worked on the case since the arrest and has spoken to media on several occasions. He said last week there were discrepancies between the video from security cameras, witness accounts and the police reports that didn't match.
