“Cheer” star Jerry Harris has been sentenced to 12 years in prison in his child pornography case, multiple outlets report.
The former cheerleader, 22, pleaded guilty to one count of receipt of child pornography and one count of traveling with the intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct.
According to TMZ, who was the first to report the news, Harris was accompanied by friends and family as he awaited his fate on Wednesday.
The disgraced Netflix star was charged back in September 2020 when the FBI searched his home in Naperville, IL, and charged him with producing child pornography. Authorities claimed he solicited sex from minors at cheerleading competitions and coerced teen boys to send him inappropriate pics.
In February 2022, he pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 15-year-old and paying a 17-year-old for sexually explicit photos and videos, according to USA Today.
Harris also admitted to similar conduct involving other minors, but those charges were dismissed.
The allegations against Harris were detailed in a 28-page complaint, which was filled with disturbing text and social media exchanges.
The criminal charge came just days after a family of twin boys filed a $1 million civil suit in Texas court over alleged abuse.
“Cheer,” which premiered on Netflix in January 2020, followed Harris and his former cheerleading squad from Navarro College in Corsicana, Texas.
He’s a sick twisted gender confused black goverment entitlement Thug monkey he’ll get 12 days with time served instead of getting handed to the victim’s families, which if my child was a victim he wouldn’t make it to court, how could we trust pedophile infested Democrat communist judges to hold the same kind of vile scum like themselfs responsible for the damage this vile scum has done
People like him should never be allowed out of jail. By their own admission, they’re incurable.
