Kim Zolciak's Son, 15, Charged With Sexual Battery
The News
Kroy Biermann Jr., the 15-year-old son of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann, was in court Friday for a bond hearing in a sexual battery case involving a minor.
The alleged victim told the judge she is being threatened over her allegations and that she is afraid of him being released, according to TMZ and the New York Post.
Prosecutors told the court that videos found on Biermann's phone show him having sex with an underage family member, the New York Post reported in an exclusive. His lawyer disputed the prosecutors' characterization of the material, TMZ reported.
Records unsealed in court Friday show Biermann had a previous sexual battery case, WSB-TV Atlanta reported.
Timeline
The alleged victim says Biermann sexually assaulted her in a gym changing room, according to TMZ. Records later unsealed in court describe an earlier sexual battery case involving him, per WSB-TV Atlanta.
Biermann, 15, appears in court for a bond hearing. Prosecutors allege videos on his phone show him having sex with an underage family member, according to the New York Post; his lawyer pushes back on that account.
The alleged victim addresses the judge, saying she has been threatened because of her allegations and fears what happens if he is released.
Kim Zolciak and her daughter Brielle Biermann leave the hearing without answering reporters' questions, TMZ reported.
Reactions
The alleged victim, speaking in court: "The thought of him being released scares me more than I can put into words," as quoted by the New York Post.
Biermann's lawyer downplayed the prosecutors' claims about the alleged videos on his client's phone, according to TMZ.
Zolciak and Brielle Biermann stayed silent as reporters questioned them outside the courthouse, TMZ reported.
What's Next
The immediate question is bond — whether the judge lets the 15-year-old out while the case moves forward. The sources covering Friday's hearing did not report a ruling.
Also unresolved: whether prosecutors bring additional counts tied to the material they described on Biermann's phone, and what the newly unsealed earlier sexual battery case means for how this one proceeds.
More
Kim Zolciak rose to fame on "Real Housewives of Atlanta." Brielle Biermann, who attended Friday's hearing with her, is her daughter.
The Frank is not naming the alleged victim, who is not identified in the reporting on the case.
