DAHLONEGA, Ga. – Lumpkin County authorities arrested 56-year-old Larry Cole on Thursday (July 18) on charges of aggravated sexual molestation, and aggravated sexual battery after a young female came forward to say he touched her inappropriately when she was 10 years old and was at his home to visit his stepdaughter.

According to her written statement the alleged victim, who is now 14-years old, said she no longer goes to Cole’s home but she is aware that he frequently invites young kids to his home. She also said she is coming forward now because she believes he is touching at least three other children in the same manner at this time.

The other alleged victims, she said, are ages 12, 10 and four years.
