FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. - A former Forsyth County sheriff’s deputy has been arrested and charged with sexually battery and sexual assault of a minor.

After reviewing video and audio evidence, detectives confirmed the victim’s allegations and Huggins was arrested on Tuesday. He remains in custody at the Forsyth County Jail.
Between 2001 and 2010, Huggins was employed as a deputy and spokesman for the Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office.
