Acquitted Ky. coach: No winners in player's death
2009-09-22
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - A Kentucky football coach acquitted last week in the death of a player says there are no winners after his criminal trial. Former Pleasure Ridge Park High School coach David Jason Stinson told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Tuesday that the case was "never Jason Stinson vs. Max Gilpin." He calls the 15-year-old offensive lineman's death a "terrible tragedy." A jury deliberated last week for about 90 minutes before finding Stinson not guilty of reckless homicide and wanton endangerment. Prosecutors argued Stinson ran his players to the point of abuse last August, causing Gilpin to suffer exertional heatstroke. Stinson's attorneys argued Gilpin was on medication and supplements that affected his body temperature and the practice was not unusual.
