Kim Zolciak Denies the Claims

The teenager was charged as an adult under Georgia’s SB440 law.
Zolciak, best known for The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Don’t Be Tardy, rejected the allegations in a statement to Fox News.
“The allegations being made against my son are nothing short of reckless and deeply troubling,” she said. “He categorically denies ever being involved with this woman or engaging in the conduct she has alleged.”
Zolciak said her son took and passed a polygraph test and that an examination found no DNA belonging to him.

Kim Zolciak denied the allegations against her son.
“We are also aware that this individual has made similar allegations involving two other people, which raises serious concerns that deserve to be carefully examined,” she said.
“Every legitimate allegation deserves to be taken seriously and investigated based on the facts and evidence,” she added. “At the same time, no one should be publicly condemned based solely on an accusation."
