TAMPA, Fla. -- An Ohio woman and a Tampa man are facing charges after detectives said he posed as a Tampa Bay Buccaneer in computer messages and asked her to send pornographic pictures of her 4-year-old-daughter.
The woman complied, thinking it would further a "relationship" with a football player, the Hillsborough County sheriff's office said.
"Do u think u can have me come for a game with a friend and get me tickets?" 26-year-old Elissa Schuster asked the man according to a transcript of their online conversations released by the Sylvania Township Police. "
i want a jersey of yours."
Johnny Michael Fleming, 36, turned out to be a bill collector at a local bank and has no affiliation with the professional football team. He was arrested Wednesday and released from the Hillsborough County Jail on a $2,000 bond Friday.
Fleming did not immediately return a telephone message for comment left Friday at his Tampa home.
Fleming began communicating on the Internet with Schuster in August after the two are believed to have met in an Internet chat room, assuming the identity of a member of the Bucs' team, detectives said. In the transcript of the undated conversations, he promised Schuster a ring and said he would marry her just seconds after asking her for the pictures.
She jokingly asked him if he was an undercover police officer, the transcript also said. She also noted the pictures were all she could get, saying her daughter was "crabby."
Schuster told detectives she thought the transmission of the photos would further the relationship with the man and that she would receive money for them, said Sylvania Police Det. Laura Bliss.
