Coach Suspected of Murder after Secret Gay Love Affair with Teenage Student (True Crime Documentary)

[@cchris874]

It's in a grey area legally. Most states do not prosecute a teacher for sex with a student 18 or older. But it's of course most likely abuse either way. And totally a crime by the standards of a high school.

[@HugaHeather]

You can call it love all the live long day, doesn't make it so. This was a predatory relationship and his own father was more than happy to pimp out his son to keep him in the coach's good graces. The coach is a predator. Plain and simple. What he said about seeing him shower and falling in love made me sick. This poor kid was being used in sick ways by his coach, pushed way to hard by his father, and hated and resented by his mother. He literally had zero adults in his life that he could trust. Just because he thought he was in love with his coach at the time does not mean it wouldn't have messed him up later in life. This is just heartbreaking. This kid had no one in his life but sickos and wackos.

So a gay youth sexually abused by an adult coach then murdered by the parents . The gay youth needed help from all the adults!

[@chrisphipps6642]

I totally agree that he needed protection but an inappropriate relationship, that was consensual, cannot be labeled 'abuse' in the same breath as being killed. Having an affair with your coach, who has nothing but obvious and sincere praise for you is no where near the BETRAYAL of being MURDERED BY YOUR PARENTS. Have some perspective please! People in a position of power like coaches and presidents have a DUTY OF CARE towards those 'under their control' which is a derived duty that has to be explained and agreed to before taking the job. Parents on the other hand have a DUTY OF CARE towards their children's well being that is categorically the most primary by any concept or measure, orders of magnitude more important than a boss or coach. I hope nobody has to explain to a parent that they should ever consider killing their children under ANY circumstance and not just the simple two factors of 'are they over 18 and do they still live with us or work for us', like a coach would when considering having a relationship with someone. For clarity: Yes we all need to protect and promote children's development and safety whenever possible, that is the duty of every adult in 'the village' that it takes to raise a child.

@@chrisphipps6642 You cannot say it was 'consensual' if one party is in a position of power, i.e. the coach. I don't know the laws in the US but in my country, it is illegal to engage in any personal relationship with a student or any dynamic where one person is in a position of power, e.g. doctor-patient, lawyer-client, counsellor/therapist-patient.

What a sad loss. It's a shame that this coach was left to carry on with his life after his choices & actions destroyed this young man's life. I was startled when you said that the coach wasn't charged criminally until I remembered that Kyle was 18 years old. In the eyes of the law he may have been an adult, but in the situation he found himself in, he was a young man presumably with no past sexual or romantic experience, and was preyed upon by his coach of all people. Disgusting. Worst of all is Kyle's parents. As a former alcoholic in recovery, I know that I have done all manner of ridiculously stupid, foolish, and yes, sometimes criminal (never to the extent of murder, mind you) things, but there is no excuse that either of his parents can hide behind. The father should've gone to the police IMMEDIATELY. The mother, fueled by alcohol & her own jealousy, is still responsible for her actions. These two were so vain & self-serving that they were willing to cast their son aside for their own selfish purposes. It's vile. I pray they will all get the help they obviously need and seek forgiveness from the highest court of all, where I hope their son is now.

[@bzh7648]

The coach might not have been guilty of rape, as the boy was 18, but he was the boy’s coach and teacher. The coach was guilty of abuse and maybe even extortion. College professors can’t sexually abuse their students and corporate executives can be prosecuted for sexually harassing their employees. When the perpetrator has a position of authority over the victim, the victim can’t say no. What is wrong with that Carbondale IL school? They should have fired the coach and notified the Illinois State Board to terminate his teaching certificate. The DA should have pressed charges. Actually, the channel owner should report the man to the School Board. They might not know. “ME TOO” didn’t teach us very much, did it?

[@mikemondano3624]

This narrative makes no sense. Why would a detective (Sarah, apparently, not Sally as the narrator said) ask about a sexual relationship? That's a stretch. Many other contradictions and _non sequiturs._ But it is puzzling that the coach chose a ginger when there were likely many blonds and brunets on the team. Maybe the other boys were already involved with other teachers.

I asked ChatGPT (the free version) "Was there a Kyle Ellerbee murdered in Carbondale, Illinois in 2014?" This was the reply: "Yes, Kyle Ellerbee was a young man who was tragically murdered in Carbondale, Illinois, in 2014. He was shot during an incident that occurred on April 1 of that year. The case drew attention due to the violence involved and the impact on the local community. Several individuals were arrested and charged in connection with his death. If you need more details or specific information about the case, feel free to ask!"

All 3 needs to be in prision for life.

🤨affair? More like abuse of power

[@Myke_OBrien]

Detectives normally wear street clothes. 😂😂😂😂

[@ElectricSpokes]

My coach made sexual advances on me when I was in the 6th grade. I think many coaches are predators. Just seems weird coaches like to be in the shower room when the students shower.

[@atmostud39]

The father got off without punishment??!!!!

[@Leftysrule21]

Yes he is a child

[@runarvollan]

'Affair'??

[@bingovegas4867]

SALLY O'MALLEY from SNL? OMG how could you?

[@Jeff-si8uv]

THIS GUY IS SICK

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

The kid? The mom? The dad? The coach? You?

[@KaDavyd13]

Being so hot of a man your own mom hates you 😢😭

[@randydickison2304]

Interesting story to listen to, but not very believable. The father would have been charged with accessory after the fact, tampering with evidence, and other crimes. He would have gone to prison for a while. The coach would have been immediately fired before he had time to resign. No school would tolerate his behavior, even if it was not illegal, because the student was eighteen years old. While many fathers accept and love their gay sons, I doubt any father would approve of his eighteen-year-old kid having a sexual relationship with one of his teachers.

[@anthonywilliams9852]

@randydickinson least of all condoning it, encouraging it, and acting as a lookout during the sex acts between the coach and his own son!

[@stephenperretti8847]

Very handsome boy.

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

You find him sexually attractive?

[@noemibarrios4056]

Sounds like a predator to me …a coach?

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

The kid seduced the coach .

[@randydickison2304]

Good story. It was interesting to listen to, but not very believable. The father would have been charged as an accessory to murder after the fact and would have gone to prison for at least a few years. He would have also been charged with tampering with evidence, and a few other charges. The coach would have been fired before he had time to resign. While many fathers can accept and love their sons that are gay, I doubt any would approve of their son having a sexual relationship with his teacher, even if the kid is 18 years old.

[@bjmartin5225]

This does not make sense . Why did she suspect the coach . Why wouldn’t he lawyer down ? even if he didn’t kill him he knew he would go to prison for the things he did .

[@brendanbrown3279]

The coach looks like The Gold Coast Suns' coach Damien Hardwick.

[@paulfreed7071]

this would make a great movie of the week.

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

FULL FRONTAL NUDITY?

[@michaeldurham4812]

Has a movie every been made about this? It would be insane.

[@MayBeMe...]

Kyle was 18 when he was killed BUT how old was Kyle when the coach first had sex with him?? Under 18? Why wasn't he charged?! That poor kid got stuck with the worst parents and coach possible!!!!😢

[@maryannbernardi7508]

It's funny how it becomes grooming when a relationship is gay, but in other countries when a father sells his 12 year old daughter to a 40 yr old man that's traditional......

[@neilgodwin6531]

How old was Jerry Lee Lewis's wife?

[@susanhowie2796]

Sally O'Malley 😂🤣😂🤣

[@Edwina-q8u]

Why wasn't the coach charged with sexual abuse of a minor Where is the justice How many more children has he abused since

[@mjinzer6881]

He should have been charged!!

[@peggygreeby5065]

Huh, this kid resembles the kid who supposedly had an affair with his stepfather. What a coincidence.

[@susandoig4192]

Poor kyle abused by all of them 😞

[@jeromejackson1029]

Kyle was 18 yrs old according to the host. Isn’t he considered an adult. I blame all three not Kyle. Why didn’t they charged the father of helping his wife cover up his son’s murder. I don’t understand that part either.

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

I blame the coach for having sex with a high school student. I blame the mom for having sex with the coach. i blame the dad for trying to live through his son .

[@omarko9708]

It sounds like a good plot for a movie !

[@TrueCrimeFilm]

You did a great job, I will always support you.

This boy didn't die, he escaped.

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

He had great sex.

[@vincentsmith4147]

Buddy, I hate to say this but I think you better refrain the Police Officers name again. You said that her name was; "SALLY" but when you showed her picture it said; "SARAH." Just thought you would like to know.

[@Bazroshan]

Kyle was eighteen years of age so we must not jump to the conclusion that the relationship between him and his coach was abusive There is far too much pompous presumption displayed in the comments already. However, coaches simply should not bed their charges because of the enormous trouble it can cause.

[@AlbertHess-xy7ky]

A coach having sex with a high school student is abuse of power.

[@lorenzbroll101]

At the High School I went to the coach had a private shower which he invited teen boys into so they could soap down. Even worse the female coach did the same - but with girls..

[@jeynjohnston8085]

Why wasn't Ralph charged as accessory and coach with charges as well?

[@greggoreo6738]

Teachers must Leave alone their students in matters sexual.. respectfully submitted for your consideration Gregg Oreo Long Beach CA États Unis

[@AlvinSeville1]

Well, obviously the coach was not that unpopular. They named an American base in Antarctica after him. There's also McMurdo Sound.

[@gtc9966]

…are these story’s actually true?!

[@dnhacademic4535]

You keep calling the cop “Sally O’Mally” but the name on the screen says - Sarah (???????)

[@hoperobinson4653]

Why would she automatically assume about the coach, gave it away at first,
