Dr. James Ray Pattillo of Marietta was charged with statutory rape, aggravated child molestation and enticing a child for indecent purposes, said Sgt. Chris Lagerbloom, spokesman for the Alpharetta Police Department.
The victim told police she had sex with Pattillo, 56, on Oct. 2 in the boyfriend's suburban Atlanta home. In exchange for the sex, the doctor - a contractor for the state Division of Family and Children Services - allegedly promised to report clean drug tests for her boyfriend and his father.
The boyfriend also paid the girl about $150, Lagerbloom said. The girl told her mother and they reported it to police.
DFACS was testing the family because of reports of child neglect in the house, said Jed Nitzberg, spokesman for the agency. Pattillo had been working with DFACS since 1991 and had passed a background check.
"We have immediately severed our businesses with this contractor," Nitzberg said.
Alpharetta police tried to arrest Pattillo on Monday, but he was not at home. Calls to his home by The Associated Press were not immediately returned.
The 15-year-old boy has been charged with pimping and pandering and was being held in a youth detention facility.

On another note, who are we to judge these people? (/sarcasm)
Sounds like pimping and pandering to me.
Regardless, this has to be one of the worst ideas ever.
Now they can sue the doctor and get even more money.
It's a little weird that the 15 year old kid just happened to take the 13 year old girlfriend along with him for his drug test in the first place unless maybe he knew she could try to entice the doctor. I bet the dad of the 15 year old had a lot to do with the plan.
I bet the dad had more to do with the girl than planning.
Similar to primping and preening, which is the misdeanor version.
Good point, that is exactly what I was thinking.
"Ummmm, hey Doc, can I ask you a question?"
