A former director of the Atlanta-based U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been arrested in New York on a sex abuse charge.

The New York Police Department says Thomas Frieden, who also is a former New York City health commissioner, was arrested on Friday morning in Brooklyn.

WABC says Frieden surrendered to face charges that he grabbed the buttocks of a woman he knew in his home last October.

Ah, my old tagline. Perhaps he should have been paying more attention to his job than someone’s butt and maybe he’d figure out how Ebola is spread.

CDC and NYC means he’s very likely not on our team.

But this trend of reporting something a year later that sounds at worst like bad miscommunication is really troubling. He said/she said with adults long after the situation is just really troubling.

All this because he ALLEGEDLY rabbed the Buttocks of a Woman? What’s next, outlawing Boorish behavior?

My God, he should be Hanged at Dawn.

"CDC and NYC means he’s very likely not on our team."

If he was on our team you would've known that before you finished reading the headline.

Exactly. This is what you get with the feminization of America.

The woman gets to decide if she wants the attention or if she will prosecute.

This was in his home.

The biggest surprise is that it was a woman he fondled.

LMAO. That’s only because he self-identifies as a lesbian.

Naw dude. He was neutral. The gun report that Obama ordered the CDC to create (against federal law, of course)?

The report came out unusable to antigunners. Proved good things about guns.

Friedan was okay in my book. A little hung up on smoking, but neutral on guns.

Just tryin to get the VRE from stool sample. I suppose it us how he “fondled” her...talk about keeping men away from women....body condoms soon to be proper attire...makes a burkha...seem like a good low tech solution.

Don’t know anything about him, but since he’s not black or muslim, I just assumed he was gay. I know -— bigoted of me, but at least one of those three characteristics applied to almost every appointment Ozero made, so...

If a guy did this to me, and it was unwelcomed, then I’d probably slap his face and leave. After all, I was just there to see some etchings!

Will folks get upset if I notice that, yet another one, is arrested for perversions? There is a statistical overrepresentation, I have to say.

It happened last October but she reported it in July and it was while she was at his house. Umm I smell vengeful scorned woman. Poor guy.

I can understand the desire but not the act.

When I was 17, there was a girl who rode our school bus. She was about as pretty as a girl gets. Her figure was as good as her face. She was a year younger than me.

One day, for reasons I have forgotten, she stood up right in front of me. She was wearing yellow Capri pants which were popular at the time. Her derriere was inches from me. I can still picture the image in my mind 50 years later.

I really did feel an urge to grab but of course did not.

Yarddog, in another year those bad thoughts in your mind can be considered a chargeable offense.
