From Maryland State Police:
A Harford County man was arrested today after a Maryland State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force investigation developed evidence supporting charges of possession of child pornography.
The suspect is identified as Sandeep Patel, 29, of Belcamp, Maryland. He is charged with eight counts of possession of child pornography. Patel was arrested at his residence without incident and taken to the Maryland State Police Bel Air Barrack for processing.
In February 2019, Detectives from the Baltimore County Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force began an online investigation involving the possession of child pornography. Detectives discovered a person online actively pursuing the receipt of child pornography files. Further investigations led to the identification of the suspect and his residence in Harford County.
In April 2019, the case was transferred to an investigator assigned to the Maryland State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
At about 6 a.m. today, the Maryland State Police, assisted by Homeland Security Investigations, served a search warrant at the identified residence. During the serving of the warrant, a preliminary forensic review of Patel’s electronic devices revealed multiple child pornography files. The devices were seized and will be analyzed by the Maryland State Police Digital Forensics Laboratory. Patel was arrested without incident.
The Maryland State Police Computer Crimes Unit coordinates the Maryland Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. This is a combined law enforcement effort involving police departments across Maryland that is made possible in part due to grant funds provided by the Governor’s Office of Crime Control and Prevention (GOCCP) and by a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Justice. Task force investigators focus on identifying those involved in child pornography via the Internet and other related crimes that victimize children.
illegal alien?
I just reread this and I don’t see anything that says he is an illegal alien. Why would you say that?
His name is Sandeep Patel, he is brown and Homeland security is involved
Homeland Security is involved with a lot of the child pornography prosecutions. Their involvement doesn’t have anything to do with his immigration status. If ICE was involved then maybe.
So everyone thats brown is illegal ?
Well you know….this is Harford County. Everyone who is Brown is also Mexican to most of the citizens in Harford County. There is only one kind of asian and that is Chinese. Your expecting a lot of people who host the KKK in their county.
Do you know the difference between a question and a statement?
Alien or American the fact is the guy is a pervert.
Why of course he is because he has been charged. Never mind innocence until proven guilty. After all Harford County doesn’t practice that sort of thing. The poophole where a mere allegation is proof of guilt.
I’ve got to agree with you. There is no such thing as a fair trial or hearing in Harford County because every Judge in Harford County is a stinking traitor against the US Constitution, the Maryland Constitution and WE THE PEOPLE of these United States. This is what happens when the UCC is substituted for law and we all must remember, Codes, Rules and Regulations are those of government, not WE THE PEOPLE. Quite frankly, every Judge in Harford County should be indicted for treason and spend 5 years in jail while being forced to pay the $10,000 fine for their treason. In particular, I can name 4 traitors from Harford County’s courts and they are Thomas Marshall, Angela Eaves, William Carr and Elizabeth Bowen. They have ALL ignored my rights and have committed treason. The disease known as Angela Eaves is still Harford County’s Administrative traitor and Elizabeth Bowen is still acting as a court administrator. They should both be removed and sent directly to jail.
Add Yolanda Curtin to your list of traitors…..She is a real gem…..raised in the corrupt States Attorneys Office to which she holds all her loyalty.
The unfortunate piece of this is it appears the current SAO is still playing the same games they did under Cassilly and company. Many of us had hoped for real change, but it seems they are incapable of executing change. Hopefully this SA wont stay in office 36 years like the last one. The voters need to watch very closely what he does and give him the boot if he doesn’t live up to his campaign promises.
Soul crusher u are absolutely right, harford county judges will find u guilty no matter what.
The whole system is perverse to include the Defense Attorneys who seem to be in the SAO pockets. The judge community is about as clueless as they come. Why nobody from the State of Maryland has done an investigation is beyond me. The Feds need to spend less time in Baltimore and come up to Harford County.
