Salyersville Man, Former Teacher, Sentenced to 11 Years for Online Enticement of Minor

A former Magoffin County middle school teacher from Salyersville has been sentenced to 11 years in federal prison for attempting to entice a minor online.

Prosecutors say 32-year-old Jordan Cobb used Snapchat to communicate with a former middle school student who was underage, sending sexually explicit messages and arranging to meet for sex while also offering marijuana.

Under federal law, Cobb must serve at least 85 percent of his sentence, and once released, he will be supervised by the U.S. Probation Office for 10 years.
