John Conner III, a dance coach who appeared on Lifetime’s “Bring It,” has pleaded guilty in a criminal case involving a teenage student, according to local news reports.
Reports said the case dates back to 2015, when Conner was 26 and the student was under 18. Conner was arrested in 2016 and charged with criminal exposure to HIV, solicitation of a minor and statutory rape by an authority figure. Local news reported that his trial was set to begin that week, but he chose to plead guilty instead.
His sentencing was set for December 20. Local outlets also reported that he faces other pending cases. Those matters had not been decided at the time of these reports. A statement from Conner was not included in the coverage we reviewed.
This is a serious case that drew a lot of attention because of his connection to a popular reality show. We will keep the focus on what the court record and local reporting say.
