FBI Seeks Information In Jerry Harris Investigation
The FBI created a website for potential victims of the Naperville resident and "Cheer" star, who faces federal charges.

NAPERVILLE, IL — As the investigation into the allegations against "Cheer" star and Naperville resident Jerry Harris gets underway, the FBI is asking for information from potential victims. Harris, 21, was arrested Thursday on federal charges of producing child pornography.
The FBI has created a webpage with resources for potential victims. They say Harris may have contacted individuals using the following social media accounts and user names:
- Snapchat: jerry_714
- Instagram: __jcoleofficial
- Any other account believed to be used by Jeremiah “Jerry” Harris
The FBI is asking anyone who believes they were "victimized by Harris" to fill out a questionnaire. The questionnaire should be completed by a guardian if the potential victim is under 18 years old, the FBI stated. The FBI notes that responses are voluntary and may be used in the ongoing investigation against Harris and to identify potential victims.
