Bullitt East, former LouCity Academy soccer coach accused of sending nude pictures to teens

A now-former Bullitt County East High School soccer coach was arrested Wednesday and charged with distributing obscene pictures to two teens, Mount Washington Police said.

Brian Davis, 45, is accused of sending nude pictures of himself to a 14-year-old girl and a 15-year-old girl on June 20 while at a student soccer camp. He was charged with four counts of first-offense distribution of obscene matter to minors, a release from the police department said.

The release said that Bullitt County Public Schools removed Davis from his position while the investigation was ongoing and that he resigned July 25. Police said the school system assisted with the investigation.

Davis had also previously served as a staff coach for the LouCity Academy, which aims to help youth soccer players develop their skills. He was hired in 2020 ahead of the academy's opening and coached its U15 team. A letter sent this week to families involved with that team said Davis had passed required background checks ahead of his hiring but had not been with the club since his contract expired in mid-June and that he would not return.

Current families will have access to a "RealResponse" system to allow players and coaches to "anonymously report any issues." The club did not respond to a request for comment sent Thursday by The Courier Journal.

The arrest comes two days after duPont Manual High School head football coach Donnie Stoner turned himself in to his attorney after being charged with three counts of first-degree sex abuse, two counts of third-degree rape and two counts third degree sodomy.

Meanwhile, a former girl's basketball coach at Christian Academy Louisville was also arrested on July 13 and charged with one count of unlawful transaction of a minor, eight counts of sexual abuse, two counts of rape and four counts of sodomy. Clarence "Mo" Moore plead not guilty to these charges on Monday.
