Man Sentenced For Sexual Misconduct At Juvenile Girls Facility
April 17, 2014
Ernest Lerenza Parker was sentenced Wednesday by Santa Rosa Circuit Judge John Simon to 25 years in prison followed by 10 years of sex offender probation. Parker was convicted by a Santa Rosa County Jury on March 7 of three counts of sexual misconduct.
Parker was employed as a medical technician at the Milton Girls Juvenile Residential Facility from March 2012 until December 2012. During the time of his employment, the 53-year old Milton man engaged in various sexual acts with several of the girls who were committed to the facility. These crimes were reported to law enforcement during an investigation of physical abuse that had occurred at the juvenile facility.
The Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s Office and Department of Juvenile Justice conducted an extensive investigation which resulted in Parker’s arrest. Parker admitted to investigators that
he had touched several of the juveniles in a sexual manner. During the trial the girls testified that Parker had touched them inappropriately, engaging in sexual acts with some of them.
The Milton juvenile facility was closed on December 24, 2012.

Don`t worry,Amtrate,now he`s the hen in the fox pen….
Agree there should be limited, if any, male presence in this girls only facility.
Any males who are in contact with the juveniles should be very closely monitored.
Guy, no matter what the girls did to cause them to be there, had no business messing with them.
He should get life as a predator.
Other side of the coin is a friend’s daughter was placed in this facility some years ago. She came home with a whole lot more “knowledge and skills” than she had when she went into custody. I believe since then the facility has changed management, staff and faculty.
Not enough time for this! I see people with drugs 20 years plus what wrong with this pic
This is not long enough, he should be put to death. This person is a scourge on society and now he will be a burden on taxpayers.
Damn, who put/allowed this fox to watch after the hens?
im wondering what kind of civil actions that will or should be taken against the facility or county for this employees actions….perhaps i dont have a comprehensive understanding of the functioning at this girls facility, however…maybe there should not be males working there in day to day contact with the females…almost seems like a “no brainer”.
