A DeKalb County grand jury indicted the son of former Doraville Mayor Jesse Norman on Tuesday for allegedly having sex with dogs and possessing child pornography.
The 11-count indictment accused John David Norman of owning nine computer photo files -- with file names like "star trek" and "tonight" -- depicting children in sexually explicit poses.
He was charged with nine counts of sexual exploitation of children, bestiality and aggravated cruelty to animals.
Norman, 57, was arrested last June after police officers found video of him having sex with two German shepherds and the pornographic photos on the computer at his Doraville home.
Doravile police reportedly had been called to the home because of reports he was acting in a suspicious manner.
He was arrested a month earlier on charges of cruelty to animals and released on $5,000 bond.
A judge at a previous court appearance issued a protective order prohibiting Norman from coming into contact with minors, animals or livestock.
He remains in the DeKalb County jail on $115,000 bond.
