Coach pleads not guilty in player's death

Louisville's courier-journal.com has a newsy update about the high school football coach charged with reckless homicide in the death of a player.

David Jason Stinson's attorney says the head football coach at Pleasure Ridge Park High School did not deny water to his players on the day 15-year-old Max Gilpin collapsed from heat stroke at practice and later died.

A criminal charge has never before been filed in a heat-related death involving a high school or college coach in the United States.
