Flowery Branch police say a growing sexual assault investigation at the Tree Park Apartments has led to the arrest of two men and multiple felony charges. Nineteen-year-old Treveon Hudson is charged with rape and child molestation, and 21-year-old Amari Harrison is facing three counts of rape. Investigators say several victims, including teenagers who told officers they met the suspects online, later came forward as the case widened.
Investigation timeline
The inquiry opened in early May and grew as more victims contacted law enforcement, according to FOX 5 Atlanta. Detectives told the station the case started May 9 with a report to Athens-Clarke County police. On June 24, officers found two disoriented teenage girls near the entrance to Tree Park Apartments, and one of them reported being sexually assaulted. Investigators obtained arrest warrants for Hudson on June 25 and searched his apartment as part of the ongoing probe.
Local court testimony
During a Hall County committal hearing earlier this month, a detective testified that Hudson admitted having sexual contact with a 15-year-old girl and claimed she told him she was 18, according to the Gainesville Times. Police allege that at least one suspect met victims through social media, then brought them to apartments in the complex, a detail included in police statements and local coverage. Authorities say they have not publicly identified any additional suspects beyond Hudson and Harrison.
Status and how to help
Hudson is being held at the Hall County Detention Center while the investigation continues, and officials say they are working to verify reports of other possible incidents, according to FOX 5 Atlanta. Flowery Branch police are asking anyone with information to call investigators at 770-967-6336 or the after-hours line at 770-536-8812. Authorities emphasize that the charges remain allegations at this stage and that the cases will move through the court system as detectives track down new leads.
Legal process
Both men are presumed innocent unless and until they are convicted in court. Hudson has already appeared in Hall County proceedings on the related counts, and Harrison is facing multiple felony rape charges, according to the Gainesville Times. Prosecutors will decide whether to pursue any additional charges after reviewing the full investigative file. Officials have urged residents to share tips directly with Flowery Branch police rather than post details online so investigators can follow up effectively.
