YORK, Pa. (AP) - A suspended Baltimore police officer has been jailed in Pennsylvania for violating his bond on charges he exchanged sexually explicit texts and videos with a 15-year-old Pennsylvania boy.
York County, Pennsylvania prosecutors say 25-year-old Timothy George III talked of marrying the teen before the messages were discovered by the boy’s father, who alerted authorities.
George had been free on bond, but a York County judge on Wednesday ruled that new assault charges Baltimore County, Maryland authorities filed Tuesday violated that bond. George’s attorney objected but was overruled.
George was arrested in March on charges he abused his 21-year-old boyfriend. Those charges were dropped when the alleged victim, who has since married George, refused to testify against him.
A Baltimore police spokeswoman says George was hired in June 2014 and remains suspended with pay because of the criminal charges.
