A Walton County lawyer, part-time judge and ex-special assistant attorneys general (SAAG) faces 12 charges of sexual exploitation of children, Channel 2 Action News reported.
George Randolph Jeffrey, who goes by Randy, was arrested Friday amid a joint investigation by the GBI and FBI, Channel 2 reported.
Documents obtained by the news station indicate that most of the charges Jeffrey faces involve photos or videos of child pornography, but one charge alleges that he used an email account to entice a child for indecent purposes.
“Attorney General Carr opposes any and all forms of child exploitation and abuse,” the statement said. “We hold our Special Assistant Attorneys General to very high standards. Given the circumstances, we terminated Mr. Jeffrey’s appointment as a Special Assistant Attorney General immediately upon getting word of the arrest.”
A spokesperson for Attorney General Chris Carr sent Channel 2 a statement that said Jeffrey had been appointed to serve as a SAAG, representing the Georgia Department of Human Services Division of Child Support Services in Walton and Newton counties.
