John Robert Ring
A Memorial Middle School teacher's assistant has been arrested on charges of soliciting sex and child pornography from a 17-year-old girl, Tampa police said.
John Robert Ring, 37, of 2609 W. Ohio Ave., was taken to Hillsborough County Jail, police said.
The girl contacted police in March after Ring sent her a text message soliciting sex and asking to take pornographic pictures of her, according to police. He arranged to meet her at 9 p.m. Thursday outside a church on MacDill Avenue not far from his home, and when he showed up he was arrested, police said.
Undercover detectives were on the street, watching Ring leave his house and go to the church, Tampa police Sgt. Paul Mumford said.
The suspect met the victim through her mother, and the girl never attended Memorial, police said. Ring started making sexual comments to the girl when she was 14, Mumford said. As the teen got older, "those comments became more aggressive and she became frightened," Mumford said. Ring did not work in the classroom, but provided support to teachers, according to police. Detectives are investigating to see if there are more victims, Mumford said.
