FORMER TUMBLING COACH INDICTED ON MORE CHARGES

WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — A former cheer coach accused of secretly recording young girls has been indicted in Williamson County.

Andrew Halford, age 32, was indicted on seven counts of unlawful photography of a minor. In January 2021, a camera was found inside of a girl’s bathroom and changing area at Premier Athletics, a gymnastics studio. The camera was subsequently linked to Halford and he was fired. Halford worked as a tumbling coach at Elite Cheerleading and Gymnastics in Carthage as well as Premier Athletics.

He was indicted in April 2021 on a dozen charges in Smith County after investigators said he confessed to putting a hidden camera inside a bathroom. He also admitted to hiding a GoPro camera in a backpack and placing it on a shelf inside the studio bathroom in Carthage. Halford reportedly confessed to Smith County investigators the same day the camera was found in Franklin. Franklin police said the camera at Premier had footage that revealed 60 victims recorded on the camera, most of them minors.
