COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- A one-time domestic violence officer has been arrested for the second time in a year on the same charges she once focused on investigating.

The Putnam County Sheriff's Office arrested its former deputy, Kim Keith, earlier this week. She has been charged with domestic violence.

A judge dismissed similar charges against Keith in August stemming from an argument with her estranged husband.

The sheriff's office said Keith resigned her position as Putnam County's domestic violence officer about six months ago.
