Shane Sparks Arrested For Child Molestation

So Shane Sparks thinks he can allegedly molest children and get away with it?

The Emmy-nominated So You Think You Can Dance choreographer was arrested and charged with eight counts of felony child molestation earlier today.

Shane Sparks was busted at approximately 8 a.m. at his N. Hollywood residence and taken to Van Nuys jail, where he is being held on $590,000 bail.

"Sparks has been the subject of an ongoing child-molestation investigation," LAPD spokesman Bruce Borihanh confirmed this afternoon to E! News.

Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office, reports that a criminal complaint was filed by Sparks' alleged victim.

The victim's name is being withheld as she was a minor at the time.

Sounds like you are not the man, Shane Sparks.

"There's one victim. It occurred in the '90s. I believe it started in '94 and went on for several years," Robison said. "She was an underage girl. She was under 15 when the alleged crimes occurred. She is an adult now and came forward to authorities."

Sparks' rep was not available for comment.

Before So You Think You Can Dance, Shane was best known for choreographing the movie You Got Served. He is also a judge on MTV's America's Best Dance Crew.

He is the second choreographer affiliated with SYTYCD to be charged with sex crimes in recent months, following the arrest of Alex Da Silva for rape in August.

Maybe in a few months, they can work on some sweet orange-jumpsuit, jailhouse rock-themed routines with their fellow inmates. Sorry, that was a low blow.

    biased and malicious but someone with a dumbass user tag.
    writing shit like this without any evidence....

    i understand you have to write an interesting story to get paid or to "get you off" but dont fuck with peoples lives.

    The way I read the reports, the last charge on him was in 2007, that means she was under age in 2007. If the first charge was in 1994 that means she was 2 at the time it started and it persisted from 1994-2007.

    I've been following both SYTYCD and America's Best Dance Crew and have always admired Shane Sparks. He seems like a nice person. Reading these allegations I was pretty apalled! Unfortunately, I too am a victim of child molestation and it's something I've carried with me for 20 years...I've only ever told my very best friend and husband. To be honest, it's something I've tried to block out as it just makes me feel disgusting inside. Perhaps this lady was going through something similar...maybe she has been trying to block it out and move on with her life, but now that this dude is all over the news it's brought back the terrible memories, and who knows how long she's been struggling with the decision of whether or not to come forward. There are so many reasons why it may have taken her as long as it has. For me, I'd rather not face my memories and never want to see the man who hurt me ever again for the rest of my life...If Shane is innocent, I hope the truth comes out and he is able to continue with his life in peace. If he is guilty, then he deserves to be punished, as 20 is grown enough to know right from wrong. I have two beautiful daughters and I would kill any man/woman that ever lays their hands on them...

    I'm mean wtf dee you really need tog get a reality check what if you got moleted and people were saying you were lying because you took a long time to fess up! You are so ignorant and everyone else who thinks that shane is insant that is total ignorance. Karma is a bitch!

  8. EBONEYDOLL Says:

    I KNOW SHANE WE GREW UP TOGERTHER AND STILL KEEP INTOUCH I WOULD NEVER BELIEVE HE DID ANYTHING LIKE THIS HE HAS 2 SISTERS WHY WAITE THIS LONG TO SAY SOMTHING IT DOES NOT TAKE THIS LONG TO COME OUT WHEN I WAS YOUNGER OLDER GUYS CAME ON TO ME AND I TOLD RIGHT THEN AND THERE I WOULD NEVER WAITE THIS LONG

  9. bambibrown Says:

    Oh yeah as far as the 8 counts against him...the counts are for 1 case it's not like it's 8 different cases with 8 different girls...it's 1 woman saying he did all this.

  10. bambibrown Says:

    slavesyndrome I will not shut up and I'm not the only one who thinks this could be a set up. When I was a young girl I can remember alot of girls including myself was lying about our age saying we was older than we was and I'm 32 now. Young girls that want to be older than they are get their hair and nails done put on make up and dress a certain way. Which make the guys think they are the age they say they are. My sister & her husband are 18 years apart I guess some girls like men that's older than them. I know the law is the law and if indeed he really raped her against her will he's wrong and should be punished but I just think she did it with her consent.
