HUTCHINSON – A Reno County judge on Thursday ruled that hearings in the cases of two students accused in a plot to attack Hutchinson High School would remain open to the public.

Ayrton “Alex” Marroquin, 14, and Carson Cabral, 15, are accused of conspiracy to commit capital murder.

Investigators recovered plans the teens had to make pipe bombs as well as sketches and plans of where certain teachers and staff would be so they could be targeted during an attack against the school.

Attorneys for the teens filed motions attempting to have documents in the case filed under seal and proceedings closed to the public.
