No, Monica Aldama, Those Who Elicit Sex From Minors Don't Deserve Our Empathy
In September of 2020, the world was stunned by the arrest of Jerry Harris, beloved breakout star of the smash hit Netflix series “Cheer” on charges of possession of child pornography. He was subsequently questioned and admitted to having solicited sexual images and videos from 10-15 victims and of having sex with a child at a cheerleading competition in early 2019. Though his attorneys petitioned to allow Harris to be released on bond and remanded to house arrest, the judge deemed him a clear and present danger and he has remained in prison pending trial. If convicted he faces at least 15 years in prison.
