Merritt Island High School cafeteria worker arrested for sending nudes to minor
Published on
Pearce was employed as an Assistant Cafeteria Worker at Merritt Island High School when she engaged in conversation with a student regarding social media. Pearce subsequently provided the student with her social media handle and told the student to follow her on that social media app.
The student started following Pearce on social media and they conversed in private messages, where Pearce ultimately sent the student a photograph that showed her unclothed breast. The student then blocked the account and the incident was reported to law enforcement.
At this time, the investigation is still ongoing as search warrants for her social media accounts and electronic devices are being executed by our Agents to determine if there are any other potential victims!!
