Child psychologist arrested on child porn, molestation charges

Police in Cobb County said Tuesday they arrested a psychologist who works with children on charges of child pornography and child molestation.

Jonathan Benjamin Gersh, 37, of Atlanta, was arrested Feb. 14. Police said he is being held without bond at the Cobb County Adult Detention Center.

The circumstances surrounding the case were not immediately known, but investigators said they were concerned because of the nature of Gersh’s job, there may be more victims in other jurisdictions.

Investigators are encouraging those victims to come forward and to contact their local law enforcement agency.
