September 20, 2017

An Atmore man has been arrested on child sex abuse charges.

Ricky Terrell Pratt, age 19 of Liberty Street, was charged with enticing a child and sexual abuse of a child under 12. He was booked into the Escambia County (AL) Detention Center with bond set at $250,000.

The Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office said Pratt lured a child under the age of 12 into a room “for the purpose of lewd and lascivious behavior” and subjected the child to sexual abuse. Investigators said the child later disclosed the sexual abuse.

The Child Advocacy Center and the Department of Human Resources assisted the Sheriff’s Office with their investigation.

    This is my nephew and I’ll support him all the way. If you don’t know his story dint judge him and say what you would do bc honestly how do any of you know if he did what he’s being accused of. That’s right you don’t. What if he was your son brother uncle cousin whatever would you want people talking about yours like that. No I don’t think so. Until he’s proven guilty with evidence you have no right to say a damn thing. He’s not no monster nor sick in the head. He’s 19 years old and not all there but he’s not stupid either.

    Pratt sould receive a life sentence without parole. No redeeming value.
