He pleaded guilty to the crimes in May.<\/p>\n<p>Hickman was arrested after an intellectually disabled woman he abused for years \u2013 beginning when she was 18 \u2013 told a friend about the acts last year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox5atlanta.com\/news\/canton-sexual-abuse-disabled-adult-troy-hickman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FOX 5 Atlanta reported.<\/a> The friend then reported Hickman to the Cherokee County Sheriff&#8217;s Office.<\/p>\n<p>Deputies learned Hickman and the victim spent a lot of time alone together during the years he was abusing her, the outlet reported, and she gave specific details about the sexual acts to investigators with the Anna Crawford Children&#8217;s Center.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/georgia-police-officer-accused-child-molestation-sexual-battery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>GEORGIA POLICE OFFICER ACCUSED OF CHILD MOLESTATION, SEXUAL BATTERY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Victims of sexual assault are often afraid to come forward, and that was certainly the case here.
