Metro Atlanta lawyer accused of paying 16-year-old girl for sex

Enan Stillman has been charged with trafficking.

CHEROKEE COUNTY, Ga. — A 43-year-old Atlanta attorney was arrested after allegedly paying a 16-year-old girl for sex in Cherokee County, the sheriff's office said.

In a release, the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office said Enan Stillman was being charged with trafficking a person for sexual servitude and interference with custody.

Stillman was arrested after deputies responded to a domestic dispute where, they said, the girl had been picked up at a local high school and then taken to a Canton hotel where Stillman allegedly paid her for sex.

The Cherokee County Sheriff's Office said providing money, food, drugs or shelter to someone under the age of 18 constitutes sex trafficking under Georgia law, where the age of consent is 16.

The sheriff's office said Stillman is being held without bond at the Cherokee Adult Detention Center.
