A Cheer mom gets 10 years in prison after entering a guilty plea for having sex with an underage boy.

According to the New York Daily News, Andrea Clevenger, a mom who appeared on TLC reality show Cheer Perfection, was sentenced to 10 years Thursday after pleading guilty to sexual assault and engaging a child in sexually explicit conduct. She was sentenced by Judge Barry Sim in Pulaski County Circuit Court.

In a forensic interview, the victim, who knew Clevenger’s family, told police that the woman had sent pornography and naked photos of herself to his cell phone. Those claims were later confirmed by investigators, who noted that the victim’s phone contained “numerous images of females in various states of undress… [and] several images of an exposed penis.”

A local mother who did not want to be identified told KARK:

“It’s sickening, just absolutely disgusting and especially that age … I think the little boy… being 12, 13, 14 — however old he was — he probably wasn’t in the right state of mind to even know if it’s right or wrong, honestly.”

The 34-year-old cheer mom received 10 years instead of fighting the case in trial, which was scheduled for next month. She was arrested back in January in a case that police said involved a 13-year-old boy. Clevenger had originally also faced a felony charge of rape.

The cheer mom receive 10 years and two 10-year suspended sentences. It is not known if they will be served concurrently or consecutively. A no contact order was issued as well as Clevenger registering as a sex offender.
