Kentucky v. Jason Stinson

VERDICT

Trial
08/31/09 – 09/17/09

Summary

Criminal trial in Jefferson County Circuit Court.

From the WSJ: "On a hot day last August, Max Gilpin, a high-school sophomore from Louisville, Ky., collapsed during a preseason football practice. Three days later, he died from complications of heatstroke. His coach, Jason Stinson, was later indicted for reckless homicide in the first known criminal case of its kind.

During the practice in which Max Gilpin collapsed last year, another team member also collapsed but survived and a third player decided to quit the team. Mr. Stinson has pleaded not guilty. A trial in Jefferson County Circuit Court is scheduled for the end of August."
