HALL COUNTY, Ga. -- A Buford man committed suicide after being accused of sexual misconduct.

Jason Greeson was a manager of the pro shop at the Ice Forum in Duluth, Ga. Police say possible victims came forward on Thursday but before investigators could secure warrants, he took his life.

Greeson, 40, built his career around coaching kids. It's a career 11Alive has covered in the past. While he was not charged, 11Alive feels the information is important to share with parents, so they can have a conversation with their kids and to inform anyone who may have come in contact with him.

On the same day that potential victims came forward, August 23, Greeson drove his F-150 to Lanier Islands Community Church on Lanier Islands Parkway in Hall County. He got out of his car and investigators believe he shot himself with a handgun. A family member found him dead in the parking lot of the church and called 911.

When investigators arrived, they identified Greeson.
