A Michigan State football recruit has been accused of
threatening to release video of an underage girl performing a
sex act on him if she refused his advances, police said.

Steffan Lamar Johnson, an 18-year-old incoming cornerback who
signed with MSU in December, was arrested in North Port,
Florida, on charges of extortion and transmission of a sexual
performance by a child, WWSB reported.

Cops in North Port responded to a call from the girl�s father,
who claimed Johnson threatened to post video of his daughter if
she didn�t have sex with him, according to the report.

The video was allegedly recorded when the victim was 15 and
Johnson was 17, according to a police report obtained Thursday
by the Detroit Free Press.

Johnson is accused of threatening to post the footage on social
media in an attempt to �injure the reputation� of the girl,
whose father contacted cops Wednesday, according to the
newspaper.

Johnson had earlier visited the girl�s home and asked her to
meet him outside. The girl complied with Johnson�s request and
said that he asked her to kiss him, according to the police
report.

After she denied that advance, she walked back to her house and
�received a video of herself performing oral sexual acts� on
Johnson via text, as well as a threat to post it online, police
said.

The three-star recruit from Venice High School in Florida
tweeted in November that he intended to commit to MSU. Earlier
this month, Johnson said he planned to attend the team�s spring
game on April 24 � just five days before his arrest, according
to jail logs.

Johnson has been released from custody after posting bond,
online records show. It�s unclear if he�s hired an attorney who
could comment on the charges he faces.

A Michigan State spokesman told the Detroit News that the
university�s athletic department was aware of Johnson�s arrest
and was monitoring the situation.

Johnson, of Venice, Florida, is listed as 6 feet 2 inches and
185 pounds in jail records. He had 10 offers to play college
football and also runs track, according to 247Sports.com.
