Jerry Harris, former star of the Netflix docuseries 'Cheer,' was sentenced Wednesday to 12 years in federal prison for soliciting sex from minors and pressuring young boys to send him nude photos and videos.
"I knew in my heart and soul that what Jerry was doing to me and Sam was bad," Charlie wrote in his statement,"but everyone was telling me that is just the way Jerry is and that if I were to ever to report him that EVERYONE would turn their back on me because I would have ruined the life of such an amazing person that everyone loved."
Twins Charlie, left, and Sam at their home in Texas in 2020. The brothers were the first to report misconduct allegations against Jerry Harris. USA TODAY agreed to withhold their last name because the boys are minors and alleging abuse. USA TODAY found officials at that governing body, the U.S. All Star Federation, waited four months to suspend Harris, doing so only after the news organization published an article about the allegations. USA TODAY has since reported on pervasive child protection failures throughout the sport of competitive cheerleading, including how USASF and failed to prevent those accused or convicted of misconduct from working with young athletes.
