[NARRATIVE #1 on June 05, 2025]
On the above date I Pfc. Stogner #450 responded to 2267 Pinewood Drive also known as Generation Kids Academy in reference to this case. Upon arrival I spoke with the owner of the daycare, [WITNESS #1] who was able to show me video footage of when the most recent incident that occurred Thursday May 29, 2025 at approaximately 0943 hours.
As we watched the video footage I observed the victim [REDACTED BY AGENCY] be carried out of class by the suspect (Serah Williams.) I observed the way Williams snatched [REDACTED] up by the arm and push him into the office. [REDACTED BY AGENCY] was placed in a corner just to the right of what appeared to be a refrigerator on the ride wall when you walk into the officer. While they were both in the office I observed Williams swatting at something in the area of where [REDACTED BY AGENCY] would of been sitting. I then observed [REDACTED BY AGENCY] stand up from where he was sitting and Williams make him sit back down. I then observed Williams pick up a cardboard box and hit [REDACTED BY AGENCY] with it. The video footage was recorded on my bodycam which has been uploaded to Axon, as well as an Axon community request for the video has been sent to [WITNESS #1].
After watching the video [WITNESS #1] stated that she also wanted to add that she believed Williams accidentally called her and left a voicemail. The voicemail was left on May 30th and began with what sounded like a slap and then continued with Williams cursing at someone. [WITNESS #1] stated that she did not receive the voicemail until Monday morning. She stated that she believed Williams had been cursing at [REDACTED BY AGENCY] in which she contacted [REDACTED BY AGENCY] mother on Monday and advised her she would be closing the daycare until the issue got taken care of. She stated that as of Monday Serah Williams is no longer employed will Generation Kids Academy and that she has already reported the issue to Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning (GA DECAL.)
[WITNESS #1] was able to provide me with Serah Williams driver’s license and social in which has been uploaded to Spillman. She was also able to provide me with a cope of the learning center’s license which has also been uploaded to Spillman.
I then spoke to the mother of [REDACTED BY AGENCY] [WITNESS #2]. When asked if [WITNESS #2] was the only guardian in [REDACTED BY AGENCY] life, she stated yes. [WITNESS #2] stated that [REDACTED BY AGENCY] had been attending Generation Kids Academy since the summer of 2023 and that he had not had any issues until about two weeks ago when Serah Williams started. She stated that [REDACTED BY AGENCY] has a learning disability and bad ADHD and that he can be easily triggered. She stated that she believed something needed to be done about this incident and that she wanted to press charges.
I did not observe any physical marks on [REDACTED BY AGENCY] person from the abuse.
I contacted DFACS to make a referral by phone on this date at approximately 1845 hours and spoke to [REDACTED]. I attempted to contact DECAL by phone and was unsuccessful, I however did contact them by email and have not heard back from them yet.
Cpl. Wilson #407 made contact with CID in which they did not respond but did say that they would be in contact with [WITNESS #2] in regards to the incident.

[NARRATIVE #2 on June 09, 2025]
At approximately 1346 hours, I contacted [WITNESS #1] regrading this case. [WITNESS #1] stated that she still has the footage. [WITNESS #1] then stated that she was looking over the footage and found another incident that happened on the 30th of May where the same person attacked the same child with a box and a chair.
I sent [WITNESS #1] a link to upload the footage to Evidence.com for this report.
At approximately 1455 hours, I met with [WITNESS #2]. [WITNESS #2] stated that she had footage on her phone. [WITNESS #2] showed me a video where a black female pulled a white juv. male into the office and forced him to set in a chair beside a microwave. I noticed the female move into the personal space of the child but was unable to hear anything being said. latter in the footage I noticed the female grab a cardboard box and throw it at the child. [WITNESS #2] was then given a link to upload the footage to Evidnece.com in reference to this case.
[End of Narrative]
[NARRATIVE #3 on June 16, 2025]
At approximately 0922 hours, I watched the footage which was uploaded onto Evidence.com.
[WITNESS #2] Footage:
May 29, 2025 at approximately 0945 Hours
On this footage, I could see where a black female, who was identified as Serah Williams, also known as CC., had ahold of a little boy’s arms and was walking him into the office area of the day care center. Williams then placed the child, who was identified as [WITNESS #2]’s son, [REDACTED BY AGENCY], on a chair. I could see Williams talking to [REDACTED BY AGENCY]. I then saw Williams move quickly and put her face directly in [REDACTED BY AGENCY] face. I then saw [REDACTED BY AGENCY] kicking a box beside the chair he was sitting on. I then saw the box fall. Williams replaced the box in its original position. This went on the same a few more times until [REDACTED BY AGENCY] kicked the box over again and Williams grabbed the box and threw it at [REDACTED BY AGENCY] face.
[WITNESS #1] Footage:
[WITNESS #1] sent me two clips from her camera system inside the day car. The first one was the same one I had seen which was sent to me by [WITNESS #2]. The second was on May 30, 2025, at approximately 1015 hours. This footage showed [REDACTED BY AGENCY] sitting in the chair already and Williams sitting by the desk. I could see Williams speaking with [REDACTED] moving in and out of [REDACTED BY AGENCY] face. I could see [REDACTED BY AGENCY] feet started moving up and down at a fast pace. Williams then closed the cabinet doors, which were open at the beginning of the footage. Williams then looked to be recording [REDACTED BY AGENCY] while he was sitting in the chair. [REDACTED BY AGENCY] then starts to kick the same box that was in the first footage.
[REDACTED BY AGENCY] kicks the box over and then he places the box back where it was. [REDACTED BY AGENCY] then kicks the box several more times. [REDACTED BY AGENCY] then kicks the box over, and that was when Williams grabbed the box and shoved it into [REDACTED BY AGENCY] face and forced his head up against the wall. [REDACTED BY AGENCY] then gets out of the chair and pushes the chair towards Williams. Williams then grabs the chair and shoves it against [REDACTED BY AGENCY] legs into the wall and holds him there. Williams then gets [REDACTED BY AGENCY] back in the chair, grabs the chair and then forces the chair to turn around, almost pulling [REDACTED BY AGENCY] from the chair again.
With this information, along with the forensic interview of [REDACTED BY AGENCY], I completed two warrants the warrants are as follows:
