TEEN HOOPS FAKE GUERDWICH MORTIMER GETS THREE

WHO ARE YOU?

TO his pals he was 16-year-old hoops star called Jerry Joseph, who had been orphaned in the Haiti hurricane - but the reality was somewhat different.  
He was in fact 23-year-old Guerdwich Montimer, who is now going to prison, instead of taking up a college basketball career.
In a bizarre story, in which he took in everyone he met in Odessa, TX, including his coach at Permian High School, Danny Wright, who eventually took him to his family home in and looked after him.
He told people that he had herded goats on the Caribbean island, according to the Odessa American.
But his lie was eventually unraveled after he was spotted by a former coach in Florida, at a tournament.
Quite why he left the Sunshine State is unclear, but he landed himself in a whole lot of trouble in Texas, especially, after it emerged that, he had been doing more than seeing, some of the high school girls.
Prosecutor Bobby Bland says Montimer will have to register as a sex offender as well
He said in a release: “In this case the victim specifically requested that we make this offer.  Due to the high profile of this case, the victim has been through quite an ordeal, and requests the media respect her privacy.
"In this case justice was done, because any time Guerdwich Montimere goes anywhere else, he will have to register with the police and tell them ‘I am Guerdwich Montimere, I am in your city, and I am a convicted sex offender.’  He will never be able to do this again.”
After pleading guilty Wednesday to two counts of sexual assault of a child and three counts of tampering with government records, Mortimer was sentenced to three-years.
