Former Highland Rivers aide indicted on rape charge

A former nursing assistant accused of having sex with a patient was indicted by a Floyd County grand jury on a charge of felony sexual assault.

Bobby Orlando Grier, 50, of 12 Crosscreek Drive, was working at the crisis stabilization unit of Highland Rivers Health early this year when he had sexual relations with a woman housed there, according to a warrant issued after hospital officials notified police.

Grier had supervisory authority over the patient and “violated her trust of care,” Rome police investigators said. He is out on bond awaiting trial.

Among the others indicted last week were a Cherokee County man accused of raping a minor and a local couple who reportedly conspired to pass a cellphone to a Floyd County Prison inmate.

According to jail and court documents:

Cameron Jerome White, 30, of Woodstock, took a young girl to Ridge Ferry Park in December against her will and sexually assaulted her. He is being held in the Floyd County Jail without bond.

Also in December, Jason Marquez Kirk, 29, of 600 Redmond Road, Apt. C9, and Monica Michelle Stoudmire, 47, of 23 Holland Drive, tried to give prisoner Demarcus Cortez Wright a Motorola touchscreen cellphone while he was working at the Floyd County Public Animal Welfare Services facility.

All three are charged with conspiracy to give contraband to an inmate. Kirk and Stoudmire are out on bond. Wright is serving his sentence for theft by receiving stolen property at Wheeler Correctional Facility in south Georgia.
