'Professional cuddler' Amber Rose Mergenthaler made headlines earlier this year when she began providing services in the Bismarck-Mandan area. Now, she's making headlines for another reason.

According to Mugshots.com, Mergenthaler, 26, was arrested earlier today, February 5th, and charged with felony child neglect. She was also charged with misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia, involving drugs other than marijuana.

Mergenthaler recently began providing her services through her business, Tranquility Services Bismarck, which, according to a profile by KFYR-TV, offers touch therapy through 'snuggles, cuddles, and back rubs.'
