David Jason Stinson, the former Kentucky high school football coach who stood trial for the death of a 15-year-old player, has been acquitted after a jury took less than two hours to come to a verdict.
Stinson faced criminal charges after Max Gilpin collapsed and later died following an intense practice in extreme heat. The prosecution pointed at Stinson’s insistence that his players run a series of sprints on an August day that reached temperatures of 94 degrees.
Gilpin collapsed during the sprints and was taken to a Louisville hospital where he died three days later from heat stroke, sepsis and multiple organ failure.
