Stockbridge man has been arrested for the

statutory rape of a 14-year-old girl in December

at her home in north Fayette County, according to

a report from the Fayette County Sheriff's

Department.

Adrian

Lee O'Bright, 20, of 167 Black Forest Drive in

Stockbridge was a family friend who was staying

at the victim's residence when the incident

occurred, said Sgt. Renee James, an investigator

with the Sheriff's Department.

There

were no signs that Bright forced himself on the

young girl, Sgt. James said.

"The

law doesn't allow a 14-year-old to consent"

to sexual relations, Sgt. James said, adding that

the victim is pregnant.

The

victim was out of town with relatives when she

told her mother about the incident, police said.

When she returned, the Sheriff's Department was

contacted and warrants were issued for Bright's

arrest.

As

with all cases involving alleged child abuse, law

enforcement officers are required to report the

allegations to the Department of Family and

Children Services.
