On July 6, a woman came to the Bakersfield Police Department where she said that in 2011, she was involved in a sexual relationship with a former Ridgeview High School girls' basketball coach, identified as Keith Lamont Cash Jr., 28, of Bakersfield.
Documents show that the then-13-year-old victim said that Lamont started to flirt with her before they began "sexting" in November-December of 2011.
