A Hoschton man pleaded guilty Tuesday morning in Hall County Superior Court to seven charges of cruelty to children in the first degree. The charges against Shannon Pavey stemmed from incidents in which he discharged a stun gun multiple times on his then-11-year-old son’s legs, held his son and then-8-year-old daughter by the ankles over the railing of a second-floor balcony, held his daughter over a loaded washing machine and placed his son in a choke hold, covering the boy’s mouth and nose with his hand. Pavey was arrested last December.
