A 21-year-old woman was arrested in Berrien County and charged with aggravated child molestation and aggravated sodomy.

Madison King was arrested at her Nashville home on warrants of alleged sex acts performed on a 3-year-old, according to a statement by District Attorney Dick Perryman.

Perryman said his office worked with Sheriff Ray Paulk to investigate the allegations and make the arrest.

“My office will now seek justice and safety for this young victim,” Perryman said in a statement.

The investigation is ongoing. King is being held in the Berrien County jail without bond.
