The senior government scientist facing child molestation and bestiality charges has returned to her high-powered job at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr Kimberly Quinlan Lindsey, 44, is accused of engaging in 'immoral and indecent' sex acts with a a six-year-old boy. She and her live-in boyfriend, 42-year-old Thomas Westerman, were arrested in October and are both free on bail. Mr Westerman is charged with two counts of child molesting.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Dr Lindsey has returned to work at the government's top research lab for communicable diseases and medical and health issues. The CDC will not comment on her case, though officials said they are aware of the charges.
The acts are alleged to have taken place between January 2010 to August 2011, according to authorities. An investigation was started into the child molestation charges after a medical professional alerted police.
CDC spokesman Tom Skinner said Lindsey is a deputy director within the Office of Surveillance, Epidemiology and Laboratory Services at the agency, while Westerman is a resource management specialist in the same office. A spokesman for the agency told CNN it was aware of the case, but said it could not comment on personnel issues.
