Jeremy Lamb, freshman shooting guard |
Ernest Hamrick |
From NBC Connecticut:
A West Harford man is accused of posing as a UConn basketball player and having phone sex with a 13-year-old New York girl.My first reaction is, “Wow what a gullible young girl, one is as light as Will Smith and the other dark like Bubba Smith. What did she think, he got a tan?” Then I remembered that 13-year-old girls love “Twilight” and Ke$ha, so I’m really not all that surprised.
Police arrested Ernest Hamrick, 20, on Tuesday, according to court records.It all started when Hamrick dialed the wrong number and got a teenage girl from Dutchess County, the Berlin Patch reports.Police said the girl misrepresented her age. They started exchanging cell phone calls and texts — 2,445 times between late October and early December, the Patch reports. The girl sent Hamrick 41 photos and was nude in several of them, police said. Hamrick is also accused of sending his own nude photos.Hamrick told the girl he was No. 25 on UConn’s basketball team. But, as the girl watched a UConn basketball game in November, she quickly realized that the UConn player wearing that jersey was not the man she was communicating with, the Patch reports.Then, Hamrick said he wore No. 3. Both numbers he picked are worn by freshmen.In a normal year, anyone other than a die-hard UConn fan might have not realized that the faces did not match up. This, however, was no ordinary year. As UConn rose to what many considered to be an improbable national title, the players became household names. The freshmen included, especially number 3. Jeremy Lamb is one of the most well-recognized freshman basketball players in the country.Police started to investigate when the teen’s mom contacted authorities.Hamrick was charged with risk of injury to a child and third-degree illegal possession of child pornography. He is due in court on April 21.
Ernest actually called me, told me he was Jeremy Lamb and sent me some pics. However unlike the ditzy 13-year-old, I did a Google image search of “Jeremy Lamb,” and told Ernest that it wasn’t him. I will admit, I wasn’t repulsed, I actually continued to sext pics with him for another month or so, until I got in trouble with my mom for sending too many picture text messages. We don’t have unlimited messaging : (
