Cornelia man charged with multiple counts of child sex abuse

A Cornelia man accused of sexually assaulting two girls a decade ago has been arrested and charged with the crimes.

28-year-old Caleb Brady Workman is charged with three counts of aggravated child molestation and four counts of sexual exploitation of children. The charges stem from alleged abuse that occurred in 2011 against two girls under the age of sixteen, according to the arrest warrants. The girls’ mothers reported the abuse to Habersham County Sheriff’s investigators this past April after their daughters told them what happened.

The girls said they were forced to videotape the sexual abuse.

“This disclosure came about when they learned Caleb would be released from prison this year for his charges of Computer Exploitation of Children (child pornography) which he was arrested on in 2016 by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI),” the incident report states.

Arrest warrants were issued in May of this year. A Habersham County deputy took  Workman into custody at the Jenkins Correctional Center in Millen, Georgia, on Friday, December 11, and booked him into the Habersham County Detention Center.

As of Monday morning, December 13, he remained in jail without bond.
