Reward Offered for Arrest of Union High School Football Coach Wanted on Child Pornography Charges

The United States Marshals Service (USMS) is offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to the arrest of Travis Lee Turner, a football coach from Union High School in Wise County, Virginia, who is wanted on child pornography charges. Turner is being sought by the USMS and the Virginia State Police (VSP) and may be armed, so caution is advised. If anyone has information on Turner's whereabouts or sees him, they are urged to contact 911, VSP, or USMS. Turner, a 46-year-old man weighing 235 pounds, is described as 6 feet 3 inches tall with brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen on November 20, and VSP has issued 10 warrants for his arrest, including charges related to child pornography possession and solicitation of a minor. Turner's family stated that he left home on November 20 to "walk in the woods with a firearm," and they have not had contact with him since then.
