An official with the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Kimberly Lindsey, was arrested over allegations of bestiality and child molestation.

DeKalb County police Lt. Pamela Kunz told the Huffington Post:

“The bestiality charge is a result of evidence recovered during the investigation. The investigation is still is active and we are not releasing further details.”

The child molestation took place between January 2010 and August 2010. Lindsey and her boyfriend allegedly used the child during sex. The 6-year-old, whose relationship to Lindsey was unclear, would allegedly spank Lindsey and use a vibrator on her.

According to the CDC website, Lindsey was a senior scientist with the Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Program where her primary role was to oversee “the $1.5 billion fiscal allocation process for Terrorism Preparedness and Emergency Response funding agency wide.”

Lindsey is currently being held at a Dekalb County prison on $20,000 bound. Her court hearing is scheduled for December 1st.
