A Lula man, Chris Posten, has been arrested by Habersham County authorities and charged with child molestation.
The sheriff’s office says that last October it was contacted by an official from Demorest Elementary School who said a counselor at the school about a possible case of molestation.
An investigator was told that the counselor had been told by a first-grader that she was “getting messed with” at home by Posten and that the student was “very vivid” about what was happening.
Based on evidence collected during the subsequent investigation, Posten, 35, was arrested about two weeks ago. He’s charged with aggravated child molestation and aggravated sodomy and was still in jail early Thursday with bonds totaling $50,000, according to Habersham County Jail records.
