Las Vegas, Nevada - A Silverado High School softball coach and a 17-year-old student carried on a relationship for months and exchanged sexually explicit text messages and photos until the girl's father found out what was going on.
That's according to the arrest report for 43-year-old Albert Hernandez, who faces six felony counts, including sex between a school employee and student and production and distribution of child pornography.
"They were in a sexual relationship since the end of January. Yes, it was consensual, but that doesn't make it right," said Sgt. Darnell Couthen with CCSD police.
The legal age of consent in Nevada is 16, but any sexual relationship between a student and school employee is illegal.
The two began exchanging text messages in December 2011, many documented in the police report.
"U were so sweet and luscious... My gosh!!!" Hernandez wrote in one text, according to the report.
In another text, police said, Hernandez requested photos of the girl, saying, "I need pictures... I'm horny."
The teen told police Hernandez requested specific photographs "with underwear and without," and one text from Hernandez requested, "Just lift your blouse and bra and take a picture of your breasts."
