A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention official was arrested Sunday and charged with two counts of child molestation and bestiality for sexual acts involving a 6-year-old boy.
Kimberly Quinlan Lindsey's boyfriend, Thomas Westerman, was also arrested on two counts of child molestation, according to a DeKalb County criminal warrant. The pair surrendered to authorities Sunday afternoon, said DeKalb police spokeswoman Pamela Kunz.
Lindsey, 44, serves as the deputy director for the Laboratory Science Policy and Practice Program Office at the CDC, according to her biography on the agency's website. The Emory University graduate, who's been with the CDC since 1999, was formerly a senior health scientist responsible for overseeing a $1.5 billion fiscal allocation process for terrorism preparedness.
A medical professional alerted police about the child molestation allegation on Aug. 24, Kunz said. The warrant cites two incidents -- the first in Jan. 2010 and the latest on Aug. 22.
"During the investigation evidence was recovered that led to the bestiality charge," Kunz said.
Lindsey earned her Ph.D. in Immunology Molecular Pathogenesis from Emory in 1998 following nine years as a research scientist. She rose quickly through the ranks of the CDC, beginning as a senior scientist in the bioterrorism program before joining the HIV/AIDS prevention division in 2000. She has received 12 awards for outstanding performance on pr0jects and programs, according to an academic bio.
A CDC spokesman said its policy is to not comment on personnel matters.
Westerman, 44, was released on bond early Sunday morning. Lindsey remains jailed on $20,000 bond. The two suspects are scheduled to appear at a preliminary hearing Dec. 1.
Kimberly Quinlan Lindsey, 44, faces charges of child molestation and bestiality.
Thomas Westerman, 42, faces child molestation charges.
Good way to get diseases. Which union do they belong to?
When does this madness stop? Enough!!! Bring back civility to this chaotic world. I am so sick and tired of all the perversion, murders, attacks on children etc. It’s evil pure and simple and depraved!
Beastiality? Was Rosey O’Donnell involved?
On reflection, thanks to the writer for leaving it all out.
When Jesus sets foot on the Mt. of Olives............
You just cant make some of this stuff up. Center for disease control involved in bestiality?
I suspect they found pics on the computer.........
words fail...
Was Kimberly the child or the beast?
They were born that way.
It’s not a mental illness, it’s just a different sexual orientation.
No, just a high ranking executive responsible for billions in taxpayer dollars...............
yep
On reflection, thanks to the writer for leaving it all out.
and yep.
She’s beast by any measure..............
Strange that the elected to assume human form for their booking photos.
I find the look on her face strange, too. I don’t know what expression a normal, innocent person would have if they were falsely accused of MOLESTING A CHILD let alone bestiality! But the look on her face doesn’t seem right. Just my opinion but they both look cynical and guilty and...a little indifferent to shame.
This is why all of the right not just a few should and need to talk about the conservative social issues instead of being cowardly and running away from them.
The more we stay silent the more these perverts will hurt our children and think of other ways to have marriage, teaching in schools etc.
I cant believe I forgot the word official after CDC. LOL Makes it look like the CDC itself was involved. Ooops.
She is 44 years old and the child is 6 yrs old. There is a possibility that she is NOT the biological mother.
If this is another IVF adopted/fostered child God help us all.
