Here is a shout out to all those parents who are protecting their daughters.
This seems to be the week for news regarding men who send dirty text messages and photos to underage girls. Fortunately, parents have noticed and police are paying attention.
Yesterday, news came out that Vernon Cheeks, a South Carolina high school health teacher and a coach, was sentenced to 10 years after pleading guilty to sending explicit text messages to a 14-year-old girl and a 15-year-old girl with the messages talking about meeting at a hotel for sex. One of the victims admitted to exchanging text messages and pictures for several months with the teacher, according to digtriad.com.
The aptly named web site, Bad Bad Teacher, reports, "Cheeks came to the attention of authorities when the parents of one of the girls discovered the alleged illicit messaging and called the sheriff’s department."
In an unrelated case, Ryan Justin Myron, a 20-year-male from Kingsland, Georgia, was apprehended after he reportedly placed inappropriate calls and send nude photos of him via text to a 13-year-old girl. The Kingsland police arrested Myron after they took the phone into their possession and retrieved the photos and messages.
Kingsland police said that they apprehended the man because of "good parenting," according to First Coast News.
