Cobb community reacts to child abuse scandals, conviction
Ross Williams MDJ 12/28/17
A plaque mounted on the wall of Kennesaw City Hall commemorates the expansion of the building that took place in 2004. The expansion took place while former Mayor Leonard Church was leading the city. The Kennesaw City Council aims to remove Church, who pleaded guilty to child molestation and other related charges in 2015, from the plaque and others like it.
Former Cobb County Republican Party Chairman Joe Dendy pleaded guilty in June to child molestation charges and was given a life sentence, with 30 years to be served in prison.
The 72-year-old Dendy admitted to multiple sexual offenses against two boys between 2004 and 2011 before prosecutors had the chance to call several other individuals as witnesses who alleged they had been molested by Dendy between the late 1950s and the spring of 2016. Prosecutors alleged Dendy had molested six boys and two girls over a nearly 60-year period.
One victim, now an adult, testified that he had recurring nightmares about his experiences, but also told Dendy that his trauma had inspired him to protect others by becoming a military police officer.
“I want to help people, and I picked that because I was sexually abused. Moving forward is important. I’ve gone through police academy, and I’m going to be a police officer because of you, so thank you in that regard,” he added. “I won’t let this get to me. I’m stronger than you.”
In Kennesaw, city officials also had to decide how they would deal with the memory of a leader who admitted to abusing children.
Former mayor and City Council member Leonard Church left office in disgrace after pleading guilty to child molestation charges in 2015. He is currently serving an 18-year sentence at Long State Prison southwest of Savannah.
In November, the council voted to remove his name from five plaques on government buildings that were dedicated during his tenure. A portrait of Church has already been removed from City Hall, where it previously hung alongside the city’s other former mayors.
Councilman Jim “Doc” Eaton said he spearheaded the effort because he had heard from constituents who did not like seeing Church’s name or picture on city property.
Mayor Derek Easterling said casting five new plaques will cost the city an estimated $10,000 to $11,000. The city’s budget has already been approved for the year, but Easterling said the city will “find it in contingencies and move money around,” and that the city manager had been tasked to do so.

===================================
Here is another Cobb County Pedophile for your information.
This one was the mayor of Kennesaw, Ga, and at the time of his arrest/trial was a sitting City Council member. He remained on the council for a year while awaiting his trial because the mayor and council of that time were a bunch of spineless bozo's, one woman council member even stuck up for this scum bag (she later ran for mayor and LOST! - wonder why?)
