===Grand jury indictment=== [[File:Tonya harding returning from norway 1994.jpg|thumb|upright=1|Harding arriving at [[Portland International Airport]] amid a crush of reporters after the 1994 Olympics.]] On March 21, 1994, a Portland grand jury issued an indictment stating there was evidence Harding participated in the attack plot. The indictment concluded more than two months of investigation and witness testimonies from Diane Rawlinson; Harding's choreographer Erika Bakacs; freelance figure skating writer Vera Marano; and Eckardt's college instructor and classmates.<ref>{{cite news |first=Christine |last=Brennan |date=January 21, 1994 |title=Bodyguard says Harding knew of plot |newspaper=[[The Washington Post]] |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/sports/longterm/olympics1998/history/timeline/articles/time_012194.htm |access-date=July 31, 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180127225704/http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/sports/longterm/olympics1998/history/timeline/articles/time_012194.htm |archive-date=January 27, 2018}}</ref><ref name="oregonlive.com"/><ref name="Bruscas"/><ref name="pleads guilty">{{cite news|url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-02-02-mn-18226-story.html|title=Ex-Spouse Pleads Guilty & Implicates Harding|work=[[Los Angeles Times]]|first=John|last=Balzar|date=February 2, 1994|access-date=July 7, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180526042504/http://articles.latimes.com/1994-02-02/news/mn-18226_1_2-year-prison-term|archive-date=May 26, 2018}}</ref> It stated there was evidence Harding fraudulently used USFSA-provided skating monies to finance the assault. It also read that Harding, Gillooly, Eckardt, Smith, and Stant agreed to "knowingly cause physical injury ... by means of a dangerous weapon." The grand jury said the evidence implied Harding was "involved from the beginning or very close." She was not charged in the indictment due to the terms of her March 16 plea agreement.<ref name="ReferenceA"/><ref name="Los Angeles Times">{{cite news |title=Indictment says Harding involved in Kerrigan plot |date=March 22, 1994 |newspaper=[[Los Angeles Times]] |agency=[[Associated Press]] |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-03-22-sp-36995-story.html |access-date=July 25, 2018}}</ref>
