LAFAYETTE, Ga. – Georgianna Pollock buried her head in a man’s chest Wednesday morning.
“I am so sorry,” she told him in Walker County Superior Court. He hugged her, felt her quivering. Her eyes welled. “I am so sorry.”
They talked for a minute, the first chance they had in almost two years. She began to walk away, turned back and shook her head.
“I had no idea,” she said.
On Friday, a judge convicted Pollock’s father, Jimmy George, on five counts of exploitation or intimidation of a disabled adult. The man’s 23-year-old son, who is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and has an IQ of 69, told investigators George performed sexual acts on him multiple times for 1 1/2 years.
