Brian Sanchez, 24, was arrested Monday by the GBI on charges of aggravated child molestation, child molestation and sexual battery, GBI spokeswoman Nelly Miles confirmed. The Georgia Department of Public Safety (DPS) said he was fired as a result of the charges.

The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office requested the GBI to investigate Sanchez on Sept. 4 after allegations emerged in Cumming, Miles said. Sanchez, who had worked with the GSP since November 2017, turned himself in at the Forsyth County jail.
