MONUMENT, Colo. - A former high school basketball coach faces 39 charges for allegedly hitting male students in the groin (showing them pornography and pouring water on his players then driving them to games in the winter with the windows rolled down) when they would answer "Bangkok".
Burr, who was arrested, posted $10,000 bail on Dec. 14, court records show.
In arrest records, some of the victims portrayed the incidents as Burr's misguided attempts at humor but said they kept quite for fear of getting kicked off the team. One student estimated some of the players were hit in the groin 30-40 times.
Another said the blows occurred at every practice, with the coach hitting them with his hand, basketballs and tennis balls.
