EATONTON – One of the four women facing charges of child molestation along with Nuwaubian leader Malachi York has been released from jail after making bail.

An Alpharetta man put up a $75,000 cash bond Tuesday for Kathy Johnson, the woman described by York’s followers as his “main wife.”

Ocmulgee Judicial Circuit Superior Court Judge William Prior set the bond last week. A trial is expected in January.

York remains in custody without bail. He is the leader of a quasi-religious sect that moved in 1993 from Brooklyn, New York, to a 400-acre rural property in Putnam County.

York and Johnson were arrested in May and face charges of sexually abusing children in a 208-count state indictment and a four-count federal indictment.

Three other women also are named in the state indictment, two of whom remain in custody without bail.
