According to official sources, Tyler Forte, a former coach at Nashville’s Donelson Christian Academy, has been charged with aggravated statutory rape in connection with a pupil who was 17 years old at the time. The 32-year-old Forte is suspected of having several sexual relations with the adolescent about four years ago while working as a coach at the academy. At the time of the alleged interactions, Forte and the student were eleven years apart in age.
The investigation into these claims began in late September of this year after the victim, who is now an adult, made disclosures, according to a report by WSMV. On Wednesday night, Forte turned himself in to the Metro Nashville Police Department officers in response to the issue of an arrest warrant.
According to the FOX 17 story, Forte was processed at the Downtown Detention Center after his arrest. However, after he posted a $10,000 bond, he was eventually freed from custody. The accusations’ specifications imply a range of sexual interactions that are classified as aggravated statutory rape by the law.
WKRN verified the specifics of Forte’s charges and recorded the police’s timeline of the investigation. According to the Metro police, the victim’s bravery in coming forward and reporting the abuse from years ago was the reason the case started. Additional information about the current case and the accused’s possible court dates has not yet been made public by the police.
As at the time of reporting, the school has not released a public statement. More details regarding the matter and the former coach’s legal processes should become accessible as this story develops.
