West Deptford Man Sexually Chatted With NJ Child: Prosecutor

WEST DEPTFORD, NJ — A West Deptford man engaged in sexually explicit online conversations with a 14-year-old girl, authorities said.

Jeremy M. Slickerman, 33, was charged with third-degree child endangerment. He was arrested at his home Friday.

Slickerman communicated with the victim — a Monmouth County resident — through several online-chat platforms, including Xbox Live, Skype, Discord and Chat IB, authorities said. In their conversations, Slickerman encouraged the girl to travel to a park near his home, where they could meet, according to the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office.
