BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — Cal State Bakersfield received an anonymous email warning that men's assistant basketball coach Kevin Mays was allegedly involved in pimping and pandering, according to a newly-released police report.
The email was sent to the head coach of the men's basketball team on Aug. 29, when Rod Barnes held that position, the report states.
"You have a staff member by the name of Kevin Mays who is participating in criminal activity (pimping and pandering)," the email reads in part.
"He is trafficking a girl by the name of [redacted]. This is a warning for you. Fix it or the whole staff will fall, as he is under your staff and you will be held accountable."
