On Sept. 26, 2023, deputies were called to a home in Habersham County regarding a 12-year-old possibly being molested.
When Habersham deputies arrived, they spoke with the parents who said they went through their daughter’s book bag and found a concerning note.
The note reportedly read, in part, that from the ages five to 11, “[a relative]...would try and do grown-up things to her and she would go along with it.”
