A Yuba County Child Protective Services worker has been arrested for extortion, accepting a bribe as a public official and possession of stolen property, according to authorities.

41-year-old Yolanda Perez Fryson was arrested on Thursday in Rocklin by Placer County Sheriff's deputies who say they witnessed her take a $10,000 bribe.

According to the Placer County Sheriff's Department, Fryson had been on administrative leave from her job since June of this year. While on leave, she contacted a Placer County man and told him he was suspected of sexual and physical abuse and that she could make the charges go away.

The victim first contacted Yuba County officials who then contacted the Placer County Sheriff's Department. A meeting was set up between the victim and Fryson. As soon as Fryson took the bribe, she was arrested.

Fryson was also charged with stolen property after detectives found a badge in her home that Fryson had reported as stolen back in 2005.

She is being held in the Placer County Jail on $500,000 bail.
