Nuwaubian wife makes bail

One of the four women facing charges of child molestation along with Nuwaubian leader Malachi York was released from jail Tuesday after making bail.

An Alpharetta man put up a $75,000 cash bond 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, N.Y., 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.
