Calling Ryan Walters! Repeat: Calling Ryan Walters! Here’s something real and legitimate for you to be outraged about.
Earlier this week, Kingfisher Public Schools announced it was cutting 21 teaching and administrative positions to offset the cost of a $5-million settlement related to abuse within its football program.
Remember that effed-up mess?
Back in 2021, a student filed a lawsuit alleging hazing and abuse in the Kingfisher football program. Instead of supporting the student and taking the allegations seriously, the school board stood by their "good ole boy" football coach, Jeff Myers, rejecting a $1.5-million settlement offer in the process.
Fast forward through plenty of drama and a deeper investigation: as more evidence surfaced, Myers was charged with child neglect, and the district was ultimately forced to cough up a much larger $5-million settlement.
News 9 covered the fallout and how it’s affecting former Kingfisher Public Schools employees like Kevin Yeagley. Towards the end of their piece, they revealed some truly infuriating news.
