Kaylee Gain's high school has refused to hand over records to the Missouri Attorney General after he said that wanted to charge her alleged attacker as an adult following a vicious school fight that left her fighting for her life.
It is just the latest in a heated back-and-forth between prosecutors and local school district officials, who say they are the victims of intimidation tactics.

In an email written by Cindy Reeds Ownsby, an attorney for the school district, she said: 'It is disappointing to have an attorney general that intentionally disrespects public school district administrators and elected officials by sending error-filled correspondence to intimidate and threaten their leadership.'
She added that the fight did not happen 'during the middle of the school day,' as Bailey has argued that school resource officers 'would have been on the scene' that occurred after hours, 'one-half mile from school property.'
He added that the district's most shocking error was about the 'unsupported
