Jerry Harris has had quite the fall from grace. The former competitive cheerleader had a wild turn in 2020 as an audience favorite on the Netflix documentary show, Cheer. But now, he will be serving 12 years in prison for sex crimes.
In February, Harris pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 15-year-old at a cheer competition and paying for sexual photos from a 17-year-old via Snapchat. Harris also admitted to other similar crimes, but those charges were dismissed as part of a plea agreement. He was first arrested in September of 2020, causing a mass upheaval in the cheer community.
