CHEROKEE COUNTY, Ga. — A Cherokee County man is currently serving a sentence for his fifth conviction of stalking the same woman, but when he gets out this time, he’ll be banned from the State of Georgia. Last month, 39-year-old Christopher Mackey Kaufman was sentenced to 35 years with 15 to serve in prison after pleading guilty to six counts of aggravated stalking and five counts of violating a family protective order. Cherokee County District Attorney Susan K. Treadaway’s Office says Kaufman and the victim previously dated and had a child together. While they were in a relationship, she said he physically assaulted and threatened her, but she never called law enforcement.
