Added ABC News Video
The case was originally heard in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Greenbelt (Rossignol v. Voorhaar, 199 F. Supp. 2d 279, 286-89 (2002)). The district court ruled in favor of the defendants on the grounds that they had not acted under the color of state law. The case was then appealed. The court decision from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Cicuit is located at http://images.somd.com/docs/Rossignol_v_Voorhaar_021326.P.pdf. It contains a pertinent details of the case and is a worthwhile read.
