<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-what-led-to-the-teen-s-arrest”>What led to the teen’s arrest?</h2>
<p id=”par-4_49″>While Kroy Biermann Jr. was arrested late last month, the charges actually stem from an alleged incident that took place back in April. Widely circulated police records indicate that a classmate of Biermann Jr. accused the teen of following her into a gym changing area and sexually assaulting her.</p>
<p id=”par-5_73″>After the incident, the unnamed victim reportedly sought medical care at an area hospital. Police responded to the hospital to speak with the alleged victim. Police reportedly made contact with Kroy Biermann Sr. in May regarding the alleged incident. He told police he’d speak with his estranged wife, Kim Zolciak, about the situation. It is unclear how much additional contact the police department had with the family ahead of Biermann Jr.’s August arrest.</p>

<p id=”par-6_107″>Kim Zolciak has never been one to hold back or shy away from the spotlight, and she’s not shying away now. Since Kroy Biermann Jr.’s arrest, she’s been vocal. In a statement given to <a href=”https://www.eonline.com/news/1435277/kim-zolciak-addresses-teen-son-kj-biermanns-sexual-battery-arrest” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>E! News</a> following his arrest, the former reality star called the allegations “reckless and deeply troubling” and said her son denies any involvement with the accuser or the conduct described. She has also pointed to a polygraph exam as evidence of his innocence, telling outlets that Biermann Jr. voluntarily took the test and passed it. details of that test, including who administered it and what questions were asked, have not been made public.</p>

<p id=”par-7_44″>Zolciak, who was previously married to Kroy Biermann and has been navigating a contentious divorce and a more contentious custody battle, has not backed away from public life since the arrest. She has been spotted several times since Biermann Jr. was taken into custody.</p>
<p id=”par-8_55″>Before Kroy Biermann Jr.’s shocking arrest, Zolciak was feuding with <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/dating-drama-kroy-biermann-caught-kissing-kim-zolciaks-boyfriends-ex-wife.html/”>her estranged husband and his new girlfriend</a>, Jillian Green, after the pair were spotted kissing despite months of denying romance rumors. Green was previously married to <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/kim-zolciak-and-kroy-biermanns-love-triangle-takes-another-legal-turn.html/”>Zolciak’s current love interest, Kyle Mowitz</a>. That drama has taken a backseat in light of what has transpired since.</p>
