The video is among key new evidence to emerge in a federal lawsuit against Kingfisher Public Schools in Oklahoma and head coach Jeff Myers.
KINGFISHER, Oklahoma — The fight inside"The Ring" in the high school locker room lasted less than a minute.
Also at issue is whether coaches failed to report to police incidents of locker room bullying that included allegations of sexual assaults. Myers allegedly told players"what happens in the locker room stays in the locker room." The school district and head coach have denied wrongdoing. Their attorneys did not respond to requests for comment about the video and other new evidence.
"One need look no further for proof of that than the fact that — despite all of this evidence of abuse and inaction — Coach Myers is still the head football coach in Kingfisher."It is infected with a culture that not only tolerates, but encourages bullying, hazing, and abuse. It is a culture that values winning above the health and safety of these boys. It has led children to attempt and commit suicide. It is the kind of environment that experts say leads to school shootings.
"He had to go home and tell his parents that a football hit him because he was afraid they would go up to the school and complain ... he would be hazed even worse." Representing the plaintiff is Cameron Spradling, an Oklahoma City attorney who has successfully sued school districts in the state before. Also now involved is the same law firm, Nix Patterson, that helped the state secure millions of dollars in settlements from opioid companies.
