Kroy Biermann Jr., 15, Seeks Bond Release After 2 Felony Sex-Crime Charges
3 articles · Updated · Yahoo! Voices · Sep 3
Summary
Georgia court filings show Kroy Biermann Jr. has asked a judge to release him on bond after his arrest last month over allegations he sexually assaulted a classmate in a gym changing area.
His lawyers argue the 15-year-old is not a flight risk, pointing to his academic standing, athletic scholarships and ties to parents, siblings, teachers, coaches and friends.
The defense also says he knew of the allegations since April and never tried to flee, and notes he submitted to a polygraph exam, though the filing did not disclose the questions asked.
The petition also seeks to keep proceedings confidential because both Biermann Jr. and the alleged victim are juveniles, in a case drawing heavy attention because his parents are Kim Zolciak and former NFL player Kroy Biermann.
