   (NewsNation) — The parents of a student who was fatally shot on the   
   campus of Kentucky State University earlier this month were taken into   
   custody in Indiana after reportedly turning themselves in to police on   
   Christmas Day.   
      
   Chardnae Cleveland and De’Jon Darrell Fox were each charged with   
   intimidation in Vanderburgh County, Indiana, on Dec. 23, according to   
   court records obtained by NewsNation local affiliate WDKY. Both were   
   released after posting $1,500 cash bonds on Dec. 26.   
      
   Records show arrest warrants were issued on Dec. 23 and served on   
   Christmas Day, the outlet reported.   
      
   Court documents indicate that following the death of their son,   
   19-year-old De’Jon Fox Jr., police ordered additional patrols for   
   Cleveland and Fox Sr. “due to the circumstances and fear of   
   retaliation.”   
      
   An affidavit obtained by WDKY cites several alleged social media posts   
   by the parents that referenced a “prominent criminal street gang” in the   
   Evansville area.   
      
   Officials described the posts as “concerning,” allegedly implying   
   “intent for violent reaction toward the family of Jacob Bard.”   
      
   Bard, a parent of two students at the university, was arrested in   
   connection with the Dec. 9 shooting. However, a grand jury declined to   
   push forward the murder and first-degree assault charges on Tuesday.   
      
   “After hearing all the evidence, the Grand Jury found Jacob Bard acted   
   in self-defense and refused to indict him on any charges. We are   
   thrilled that Jacob is now with his family and his name is cleared,”   
   Jonathan A. Danks, an attorney representing Bard, told NewsNation in a   
   statement.   
      
   Defense attorneys argued Bard was “completely justified under the law”   
   in using deadly force. They said Bard’s two sons had faced multiple   
   alleged attacks and armed threats in the days leading up to the   
   incident. Attorneys claimed that Bard had repeatedly sought help from   
   campus police and university officials, but that they did not take   
   sufficient action to protect his children.   
      
   On the day of the shooting, Bard was trying to remove his children from   
   the school but was attacked in the process, which led him to open fire   
   in defense of his kids, according to the attorneys.
