Here is the tweet where Jericho asked the public if they wanted to see the texts:
I have screen shots of messages sent to the principal by my niece’s older sister on May 6 asking for help with “some girls who are messing with my sister…I know who they are & need to talk to u about them”. Those messages were left unanswered. Wanna see them? @HillsboroughSch https://t.co/d6RwZoaF4E
