Former Marshall County High School Head Football Coach Ron Barnard has been indicted on felony charges stemming from his alleged involvement with a 15-year-old student.

A Marshall County Grand Jury returned a true bill Thursday, indicting Barnard on felony and misdemeanor charges including; solicitation of the use of a minor in a sexual performance; use of electronic means to induce a minor to engage in sexual or other prohibited activities; sexual abuse first degree; and distribution of obscene matter to minors.
