Court docs detail sick child-porn charges against ‘Cheer’ star Jerry Harris

Jerry Harris, the disgraced star of Netflix docuseries “Cheer,” admitted to authorities that he exchanged sexually-explicit photos and videos with underage boys and repeatedly solicited them to hook up in person, according to a disturbing criminal complaint.

The allegations against Harris — arrested Thursday on federal child-pornography charges — are laid out in the 28-page complaint and illustrated by disturbing text and social-media exchanges.

“Do it naked and take a video and show me,” Harris, 21, allegedly wrote to one teen boy on Snapchat — punctuating the message with a winking emoji — in response to a photo of the youth performing a cheerleading position known as the needle.

Despite the boy telling him that he was just 13-years-old, Harris also allegedly requested pictures of his “face … and booty” in a separate exchange, according to prosecutors at the US Attorney’s Office in Chicago.

The youth eventually relented to the advances, sending images of his private areas to Harris, who reciprocated with explicit images of his own, including one of him masturbating, authorities allege.

At a cheerleading camp held in Feb. 2019, Harris allegedly tried to entice the boy into performing oral sex on him in a bathroom, but the youth refused, the complaint continues.

Harris is also accused of making similar overtures to the boy’s twin brother, including sending him a Snapchat message that read, “Would you ever want to ****[?]”

That teen told authorities that he interpreted the stars to mean “f–k” — and Harris admitted that that was his intent under questioning, the complaint states.

Harris is thus far charged with one count of producing child pornography, even though he allegedly “admitted to soliciting and receiving child pornography on Snapchat from at least between 10 to 15 other individuals he knew were minors,” according to the complaint.

The complaint goes on to allege that Harris copped to engaging in anal and oral sex with a 15-year-old boy at a cheerleading event in 2019, and exchanging explicit photos with two 17-year-old boys — enticing one of them with money.

The alleged predatory behavior was uncovered when the mother of the twins discovered a text exchange in which Harris explained to one of her sons why he no longer followed him on Snapchat.

“I don’t think it’s a good idea that we be friends on snap,” Harris wrote, according to screenshots of the conversation. “I’m sorry for what I’ve done in the past.”

The screenshot shows Harris ended the conversation by telling the teen, “I love you too!” and sending a heart emoji.

Despite his own alleged admissions, reps for Harris have denied the twins’ claims.

Harris rose to fame for his role on “Cheer,” which follows the cheerleading squad from Navarro College in Corsicana, Texas.

The criminal charge comes just days after the boys’ family filed a $1 million civil suit in Texas court over the alleged abuse.
