A Florida mom has been arrested after deputies said her estranged husband allegedly caught her on camera committing disturbing acts with the family dog, RadarOnline.com can report.
Malia Nummerdor was charged with engaging in sexual contact with an animal after her ex shared the video on Facebook.
Malia Nummerdor was Allegedly Caught on Camera
Malia Nummerdor smiled ear-to-ear for her mugshot after her arrest.
According to the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office, Erik Nummerdor told deputies he had installed two security cameras in the home in order to find out who had been stealing money from a coin container.
He explained that while reviewing recordings from the bedroom camera, he found video footage of Malia, 38, engaging in disturbing acts with the family dog, Ranger. Erik provided deputies with images from the recording and access to the laptop containing the video footage, per the detective's affidavit.
"He stated the bedroom camera was visible, displayed a blinking red light, and was known to household members," the detective wrote in the affidavit. "The camera recorded continuously in rolling intervals, overwriting older footage."
Detectives Reviewed Video Footage
Her estranged husband claims he caught her on surveillance video.
According to a sheriff's release, the video showed Malia "partially nude" and the animal "positioned in a manner consistent with s-xual activity."
That account was backed up by the detective, who noted, "I reviewed the images and observed an adult female, identified by Erik as Malia, nude from the waist down."
The next day, deputies spoke with Malia, who acknowledged that the video showed her and the family dog, but denied any inappropriate conduct and instead told deputies she had just been petting the dog.
Authorities noted Malia appeared impaired and acknowledged she was under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol, the affidavit states.
Malia Nummerdor Tried to Blame Her Ex
Malia denies any s-xual activity with the dog.
While continuing to deny anything inappropriate occurred, Malia reportedly was unable to "provide a consistent explanation for what was seen on the camera."
Malia then tried to turn the tables on her ex, claiming he had installed the cameras without her knowledge, and had wrongfully accessed her social‑media accounts to post images and videos. She contends Erik had previously threatened her with the videos, but he countered and told deputies that the presence of the cameras was known to everyone in the home.

She faces up to 15 years in jail.
Malia was placed under arrest, but she had one last surprise for her arresting officers when she flashed a wide smile in her mugshot, baffling the county sheriff.
"There are only a few times in my career that I have been at a loss for words," said Sheriff Bill Prummel. "This is one of those times."
"I simply cannot comprehend this behavior. No animal should ever be subjected to this kind of conduct, and you can be sure that we will take action when we learn about it here in Charlotte County," he continued. "And then to smile in the mugshot? I don’t know what there is to smile about when you’ve been arrested for something as disgusting as this."
According to Florida Statutes, the second-degree felony carries a penalty of up to 15 years in jail.
