This has been in the local news--at first, he was missing lots of rumors on why. Now the VSP has come out with more information:

A Virginia high school football coach who disappeared last week is now a fugitive from justice after state police on Tuesday, Nov. 25 announced he was wanted on child pornography possession and child solicitation charges.

Travis L. Turner, 46, who disappeared late last week, is wanted on five counts of possession of child pornography and five counts of using a computer to solicit a minor, the Virginia State Police confirmed to USA TODAY.

It was not immediately known if the alleged crimes involved a student or athlete, or whether there is more than one victim in the case, but police on Tuesday said they were "actively searching for Turner," last reportedly seen on Nov. 20.
Police said officers were sent to Turner's residence in Wise County on Thursday, Nov. 20.
While in transit, police said agents were informed Turner was no longer at the location.

Holy Crap! That's the Union HS head football coach. They in the midst of a perfect 12-0 season.
Sad sad news!!
Hopefully the pedo gets what pedos deserve…a healthy dose of leadicillin.
Pretty sad situation for the whole community one of the worst crimes that can be committed. More victims than just victims of the crime(s) he is charged with. He held a position of high regard in the school system and the community its a small rural area. Yes, the UNION team is undefeated sitting at 12-0 making a strong run in the Va state playoffs.

VA Class 2 Regional Final schedule:
No. 1 Union [Appalachia/Powell Valley] vs. No. 2 Ridgeview - 11/28 at 7:00 p.m. ET
