Basketball coach charged with statutory rape, sodomy


Basketball coach charged with statutory rape, sodomy

The Chesterfield Police Department announced Wednesday that warrants were issued charging a local basketball coach with statutory rape and statutory sodomy.

Investigators said Brent Michael Woody, 26, of Creve Coeur, was arrested following an investigation into reports of alleged sexual misconduct by Woody involving two female juveniles.

Woody was charged with 11 counts of second degree statutory rape and four counts of second degree statutory sodomy. He's being held on a $50,000 cash bond.

Police said Woody, who was not a teacher, was employed as a high school basketball coach by a local school district; however the alleged incidents which occurred in 2009, occurred off-site and did not involve school district property.

The Parkway School District released the following statement regarding the former coach at Central High School:

•We have been notified by the Chesterfield Police Department that a former athletic coach at Parkway Central High School may have been involved in inappropriate sexual activity with one or more of our students. We are deeply concerned and are cooperating fully with the investigation.

•During the 2008-09 and 2009-10 school years, the individual served as the ninth grade girls basketball coach and as an assistant track coach at Central High. He did not have a teaching contract with Parkway, but occasionally served as a substitute teacher. Before being hired in the fall of 2008, a federal police background check was completed revealing no previous instances of misconduct. Another federal background check was completed in October 2009 with the same results. He did not seek employment in Parkway for the 2010-11 school year.
