MTV America’s Best Dance Crew judge Shane Sparks was arrested on Friday morning following a criminal complaint involving child molestation made against him a day before by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office. The complaint involves nine counts, including four counts of child molestation and committing lewd acts on a child “with the intent of arousing, appealing to, and gratifying the lust, passions, and sexual desires of the defendant, who was at least 10 years older than [the victim]“. The victim was one of Shane’s dance students between 1994-1997.
The 40 years old choreographer, whose real name is Melvin Hall used to be a judge and choreographer on multiple seasons of FOX’s ‘So You Think You Can Dance’. This job even brought him an Emmy nomination.
Shane Sparks was arrested at his home in North Hollywood and is being held at Van Nuys Jail on a $590,000 bail.
