Basketball Program Co-Founder Charged With Raping Player

Kentucky Future Facebook Page

  A man who co-founded a local basketball program in Kentucky is accused of raping one of its teen players.

Forty-one-year-old Corvell Conley was arrested by Radcliff Police on Thursday and charged with third-degree rape and sodomy.

 

The News-Enterprise cites an arrest citation that says the assault happened Tuesday night when Conley drove the teen home from Kentucky Future basketball practice.

 

A hospital medical report says the findings of a sexual assault nurse examiner align with the girl's accusation.

 

Conley is scheduled to appear in court on May 4.

 
Kentucky Future posted a statement regarding the incident on their Facebook page Friday.
 
They said, "Kentucky Future Basketball Organization fully support the victim and her family during this hard time. We are aware of the on going investigation and will fully cooperate with the authorities if called upon. All coaches and members of our program go through a background check before they are allowed to step foot on the court. All association to the former coach has been severed and he is no longer affiliated with the program on any level."
