EASTMAN, Ga. — A Dodge County School board chairman is still in jail after he was accused of child molestation.
According to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, the Eastman Police Department asked the GBI to assist them in their investigation of Dodge County School Board chairman Elvis Davis on May 16, which was about a week before school let out.
His last known interaction with the school was on the last day of school and he attended an event for the eighth graders at Dodge County Middle School.
The GBI told 13WMAZ that Davis' charges are not school-related.
Davis faces several charges including two counts of child molestation, one count of sexual exploitation of children and two counts of improper sexual contact.
The 59-year-old is also a former educator. He was a principal at Dodge County Middle School four years ago. Before that, he was at Dodge County Elementary.
According to his LinkedIn profile online, Davis has been working for the past two years as a mortgage loan investigator.
13WMAZ called Dodge County Superintendent Susan Long. She told us: "The board is aware and has no comment on pending and legal issues."
We also reached out to Leniece Johnson on the school board and she also had no comment.
After Davis was arrested last Friday, he was taken to Dodge County jail.
According to the county's website, he was still in jail Monday afternoon and no bond has been set.
