Teen son of Kim Zolciak, Kroy Biermann granted bond, put on house arrest
The order requires house arrest, GPS monitoring and a ban on phone and social media use while the case moves forward.
On Friday, Kroy 'KJ' Biermann Jr., 15, was granted a $200,000 bond in Fulton County, Georgia, as he faces seven felony charges stemming from an alleged incident in April.
Biermann allegedly sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl inside a locked changing room at an Alpharetta gym, according to the indictment, leading to charges including aggravated child molestation.
Fulton County Deputy District Attorney Caitlin McGillicuddy argued for detention, characterizing the alleged conduct as "predatory" with "documented physical injury," while defense attorney Jason Sheffield requested a $65,000 bond, calling the case "so traumatizing."
If released, the bond order mandates house arrest with GPS monitoring and prohibits Biermann from using mobile phones or social media; he cannot contact anyone under 16, including his siblings.
Biermann is the son of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak and former Atlanta Falcons player Kroy Biermann, who are estranged and remain in divorce proceedings.
