A case of indecent text messages has now expanded to three counties…

Coffee, Franklin and Rutherford County authorities have an unusual case on their hands. We first reported this story last week and now we are hearing reports from Franklin County. Lawmen have been investigating numerous cases of sexual phone harassment. The person sending the text is sending sexually oriented material to the women.

Franklin County Sheriff’s Sgt. Chris Guess stated Wednesday,  “We have had reports of several women receiving the very graphic text pictures.” “Investigators are concerned that some juveniles could end up receiving some of the text.”Police say the harassment is originating from 931-434-8489.

In Murfreesboro, a victim told police she received a graphic text message from what looked like a male, shortly after allowing a stranger to use her cell phone. The female victim told officers the text was from a 931 area code, similar to the cases in Coffee County and now in Franklin County.

Police say they have had several reports of such activity, but think there are more women who have received the graphic texts and who have not notified police about it. 

Police asked that if anyone has received the inappropriate text and or picture messages to notify police or deputies about the graphic text. IF YOU GET SUCH A TEXT, do not erase it and notify authorities.
