Online Grooming Alerts from Sheriff Rhyne | Greenville News

Two girls, ages 12 and 14, were rescued from online grooming predators in separate incidents—highlighting a growing digital danger. Sheriff Bill Rhyne warns parents to be vigilant, as these cases ended safely but could easily turn deadly. A 14-year-old was found with a 22-year-old man in New York, arrested on kidnapping charges; just days before, a 12-year-old was saved in Arkansas after being taken by a 31-year-old. Both girls are home, but authorities stress that prevention—not just reaction—is key. Parents must actively monitor their kids’ online activity to shield them from unseen threats.
