Paulding County Woman Fakes Pregnancy to Deceive Man, Triggering Obstruction Charge
Paulding County Sheriff Ashley Henson says Lakesha Brown did not actually give birth and used photographs to convince a man she had; investigators found no newborn and Brown lied to detectives, resulting in a misdemeanor obstruction charge. Brown remains in Atlanta custody on kidnapping and cruelty-to-children charges in a separate case involving two sisters, and is expected to be moved to Paulding County to face the obstruction charge after related cases proceed in other jurisdictions.
