Overview
- A grand jury on Thursday, Sept. 3, 2026 returned a seven-count indictment charging Kroy “KJ” Biermann Jr. with aggravated child molestation, aggravated sodomy, aggravated sexual battery, three counts of sexual battery against a child under 16, and false imprisonment.
- Biermann was arrested on Aug. 17 and has been held without bond at the Metro Regional Youth Detention Center while the superior court handles the case under Georgia’s SB440 law.
- Police say the alleged incident occurred April 23 at an Alpharetta Life Time Fitness changing room and investigators reviewed surveillance and other materials as part of a months-long probe.
- Defense lawyers cite a sexual-assault exam that reportedly found no male DNA linked to Biermann and say he voluntarily took and passed a polygraph, and they have filed for bond and to seal juvenile records.
- The indictment increases legal exposure and raises reputational stakes because both teens are minors and the family’s public profile has intensified media attention; preliminary hearings are scheduled for early September and the court will decide whether to proceed in adult court.
