A Pickens County Junior High School teacher has been arrested on four counts of enticing a child for indecent purposes.
Gilbert Suarez IV, 38, of Cartersville turned himself into the Pickens County Detention Center on Friday, January 31.
According to Special Agent in Charge Kim Williams of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation Cleveland Office, on Saturday, January 25, agents were requested by the Picken's County Sheriff's Office to assist with an investigation into Suarez soliciting inappropriate photographs from female students.
"The Pickens County School Board placed Suarez on administrative leave at the beginning of the investigation. Three different females were identified as being approached by Suarez, all under the age of 15," Williams said. "Fortunately, the incident was reported before any photographs were provided."
The case will be provided to the Appalachian Judicial Circuit District Attorney’s Office for prosecution.
