7 arrested after teen beaten, sexually assaulted in metro Atlanta home

Dey wuz all black.

PAULDING COUNTY, Ga. — Seven suspects were arrested during a raid last 
week, including a 13-year-old who is being charged as an adult for serious 
crimes.

Investigators say that two suspects brutally beat a teen before three 
others sexually assaulted the victim inside the home.

“The grandmother, she was arrested also. It was her house, so she knew 
what had been taking place there, and essentially turned a blind eye to 
it,” Paulding County Sheriff’s Office Public Information Officer Jordan 
Yuodis said.

This was the fourth time the sheriff’s office raided the property, 
following numerous complaints from neighbors who were too afraid to speak 
on camera.

The Paulding County District Attorney’s Office is working to seize the 
property involved in the recent raid.

The sheriff’s office says it has shut down multiple drug houses this year 
as part of a larger crackdown on gangs, drugs and guns.

They want to take ownership of these properties, clean them up and sell 
them to families.

“We are sick and tired of drugs and gangs in Paulding County,” said 
Paulding County Sheriff Ashley Henson.
