A former middle school basketball coach appeared in front of a judge this morning.

Antoine Lewis Jones is charged with criminal sexual conduct involving boys who were on his team.

The 28-year-old was a basketball coach at A.L. Holmes Middle School. 

He is being held on a $1 million bond and facing 16 felony counts.

Prosecutors say he had inappropriate sexual conduct with at least four boys on the basketball team he coached and there could be more victims.

Jones also allegedly asked some of the kids on the team for inappropriate photos through text messages and social media.

His next court date is set for April 14.
