Former Acworth Sunday School Teacher Arrested for Sexual Assault
Police believe there may be more victims.

ACWORTH, GA -- Jonathan Martinez, who taught Sunday school classes at an Acworth church for several years, has been arrested on charges that he sexually assaulted a student in 2013.
Martinez, 27, was arrested earlier this week in Brunswick, and is awaiting transfer back to Cobb County to face the charges, reports WSB-TV.
Police believe there may be other victims, but after recent illegal immigration raids, some immigration activists are concerned that no one will come forward to a law enforcement official to speak.
