Ross McCord, a former long time instructor at a Franklin, TN., dance studio was arrested Thursday afternoon on a multi-count indictment on sex charges involving a teenage student.
Franklin police began investigating 29-year-old McCord in October after the girl’s parents came forward with information about McCord and their daughter.
McCord is charged with four counts of statutory rape by an authority figure, four counts of aggravated statutory rape, solicitation of sexual exploitation of a minor, and exploitation of a minor by electronic means. McCord, of Brentwood, TN, is being investigated for similar crimes in other areas. Detectives believe there could be other victims because McCord has been a dance instructor for 10 years. source
McCord’s bond has been set at $50,000.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Franklin police.
