Head of Junior Achievement in Tulsa arrested, child pornography suspicion
TULSA, Ok. - AM 740 and FM 102.3 News/Talk KRMG's Glenn Schroeder reports Greg Boyd was the president of Tulsa Junior Achievement. That is no longer the case. Greg Boyd is in jail. He was arrested yesterday on 2 complaints of possession of child pornography. Broken Arrow Police Major Carole Newell says, "All indications are that it is probably downloaded from the Internet or sent to him from someone else. There is no indication that any of this was videoed, produced or manufactured by him." Newell says they were tipped off last week that Boyd was in possession of child pornography. He is in jail on a $20,000 bond.
What others are saying
- Digital camera allegedly shows images of local kidsIt's much worse than the initial reports. Boyd was allegedly offering to pay for sexual favors and photographing local teenagers performing sexual acts in his bedroom. A digital camera was confiscated at the same time as his personal computer. It showed some of these images.
Court documents have been filed by the police that detail all this information and more, as reported today in the Tulsa World in "Court filing gives details of evidence in sex case."
Greg Boyd also taught Sunday school at Indian Springs Baptist Church and had ties to the Broken Arrow Community Playhouse theater group.
Parents need to have a talk with their kids, show them Boyd's photograph, and ask some serious questions. Even if their kids weren't directly involved with any of these organizations, they may have friends who were or who knew Boyd and their kids could have been invited to join them for a visit over to Boyd's house to participate in activities.
Parents need to prepare their kids from a young age what to do if they come in contact with a sexual predator. They can look like anyone, be very nice, hold responsible, respected positions of authority, and still have a predator hidden within their personality. They often are someone in your own family or circle of friends. Kids can deal with a situation, if they know ahead of time how to handle it. Don't put off having this talk.
There are a lot of predators out there who just haven't been caught yet.
