Recently, the Butts County Sheriff’s Office arrested Aaron Belvin of Jackson, Ga.
Belvin was charged with incest, child molestation, aggravated child molestation and sodomy.
Butts County Sheriff Gary Long says he prays for the victim and says no child should go through such a “horrendous thing.”
“I pray that when justice is served and if convicted I hope he rots in a Georgia prison, never to see the light of day again. In my professional opinion, these types of criminals are the sickest of mankind and will never rehabilitate, causing a lifetime of hurt and trauma to innocent children everywhere they go,” Long wrote.
