Jason B. Sheffield is repping the son of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak and former NFL player Kroy Biermann in his sexual battery case ... and during Friday's bond hearing, prosecutors made some shocking claims about a prior case, which was previously unknown.

Sheffield tells TMZ ... "The characterizations made in court regarding the prior juvenile matter involving KJ Biermann grossly misrepresent both the facts and the ultimate resolution of that case."
