Assistant State’s Attorney Special Victims Unit, Erin Pearl and Chief ASA Domestic Violence Unit, Brett Engler attended yesterday’s Governor’s signing of House Bill 929/Senate Bill 721, The Permanent Protective Order Consent Bill in Annapolis, MD. Taking effective October 1, 2025, this legislative act will better protect victims of abuse.The order will allow Defendants to consent to a permanent protective order as part of their plea agreement up front, allowing the victim’s safety to begin immediately. In the past, the victim could not file for the permanent protective order until the Defendant had served a total of at least one year of their imposed sentence. Victims will now receive the security and protection of the Court, and defendants may avoid the risk of trial or a lengthier sentence in exchange for their consent to the permanent protective order. Thank you Delegate Karen Simpson for sponsoring the bill and Senator Shaneka Henson ! Thank you ASA Pearl and ASA Engler for your support of this bill and for tirelessly advocating for victims’ rights in Maryland! Governor Wes Moore ... See MoreSee Less

Rubin sentenced William Joseph Murrow, 43, formerly of Frederick County, Maryland, to 25 years in prison for the sexual exploitation of a child. Upon his release from prison, Murrow must register as a sex offender for life and was ordered to serve 20 years of supervised release.Kelly O. Hayes, U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland, announced the sentence with Special Agent in Charge William J. DelBagno of the Federal Bureau of Investigation – Baltimore Field Office; J. Charles Smith, State’s Attorney for Frederick County; and Chief Jason Lando, Frederick Police Department.According to court documents, Murrow sexually abused and exploited a minor by soliciting images and engaging in sexual acts with her. The abuse occurred for more than 18 months, ending when the child’s mother discovered the abuse and reported it to the police. This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorney’s Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who sexually exploit children, and to identify and rescue victims.
