From the Harford County Sheriff’s Office:
Detectives have charged a Baltimore man with making a false statement after he made a false report to the Harford County Sheriff’s Office regarding child sex trafficking.
On April 13, 2022, detectives with the Harford County Sheriff’s Office received information regarding child sex trafficking occurring at an adult bookstore in the 3000 block of Pulaski Highway, Edgewood. Detectives identified an employee of the business, Ryan Dark White, a.k.a. Dr. Jon McGreevey, 54, a candidate for United States Senate, as the source of the information.
The information provided to detectives claimed an older adult male was in the business with a young girl, 10-12 years of age, forcing the child to perform sexual acts on male customers.
Detectives assigned to the Harford County Child Advocacy Center immediately initiated an investigation into the information provided. At no time was a formal report filed with the Harford County Sheriff’s Office by anyone who purported to witness the incident. Detectives conducted interviews, followed leads, gathered digital evidence, and identified the adult male and juvenile female mentioned in the initial complaint.
On July 7, 2022, detectives interviewed White. The investigation revealed at no time were any sex acts performed or offered by any of the individuals in the establishment as reported by White.
On July 15, 2022, detectives arrested Ryan White without incident. White is charged with false statements to a law enforcement officer and false statement of the commission of a crime and existence of a condition imminently dangerous to public health and safety. He was transported to the Harford County Detention Center, where he is being held pending an initial appearance before a District Court Commissioner.
“It is shameful that a candidate for public office would make up such a story and use it to further his own political agenda” said Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey R. Gahler. “It is even more appalling, that another individual, who is running for a law enforcement position, would embrace such an obviously false narrative in an effort to gain political traction – nothing more. I am beyond grateful this young girl is safe, but extremely disappointed someone would attempt to discredit and disparage the work of the dedicated men and women of the Harford County Sheriff’s Office and Child Advocacy Center. Fearmongering and antagonism caused wasted time and energy by our personnel, whose time would have been better served protecting the citizens of Harford County, instead of investigating lies.”
The investigation is ongoing. No further information is being released at this time. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Harford County Sheriff’s Office, Child Advocacy Center at 410-879-2000.
Original Observer says
So who is “another individual, who is running for a law enforcement position”?
A in B.A. says
I did a quick search and found this “Doctor” had been interviewed on a different news site and alleged that he had been poisoned by the suspects in the trafficking ring. This interview was said to also feature Balto County Sheriff Candidate named Kuhl (I think). I did not watch the interview but that’s the synopsis of their page.
Weird stuff.
A in B.A. says
Where did this guy get his “Doctorate” degree? Online course of American Samoa?
Question says
Did the adult male have the juvenile at that business and if so why?
Whack a mole says
If he did and there was nothing criminal going on, the why is it any of your business? Is bad parenting a crime now and somehow public business? Maybe the police should post where you take your kids to see if anyone might be offended? Get out of your mom’s basement and get a life.
Question says
Whack a mole did you read what you posted? Think about it, are you saying your a bad parent or are you the male subject ?
lon staghorn says
been looking at this pigfucker’s face for months now…get another story, of someone else…this is ridiculous

Months?
LOL says
Who remembers the glory days when there were articles about the teachers union nearly every week?
That shit came to a halt once some court ruled people didn’t have to pay mandatory dues when they weren’t even a member of a “union.”
The Truth of the Matter says
This is a Political Hit by Aaron Penman and Jeff Gahler. We watch as the Harford County Sherriff’s continue to screw up investigations. It was confirmed by the HCSO there was a young child in the Adult Bookstore in Edgewood and yet we arrest and charge Jon McGreevey two days before the primaries. Anyone besides me see the dots connecting? Anyone? The investigating Harford County Sherrif’s officer is a well known patron of this Adult Bookstore. In fact he has quite the reputation in the theater of this Adult Bookstore according to sources.
I also find it interesting that Jon McGreevey court case has been mysteriously rescheduled after the November Elections. Convenient don’t you think? When you are running for Sherriff you don’t need any unnecessary scrutiny during your reelection. Now you have Aaron Penman who is County Council Candidate and a Harford County Sherriff Seargent as well as President of the HCSO Union running smear campaigns first against the current States Attorney Al Pessinger and now against County Council Candidates. Coincidence? I think not.
Harford County, the Sherriff’s Department, and the Sherriff’s Union are disgustingly corrupt. If only we could get someone like Andy Kuhl to run in Harford County for Sherriff the citizens would be far better off. I would not be surprised if Gahler himself has some connection with those bookstores in Harford County. Don’t believe me that’s ok. Do some research and see what you learn. Its all very interesting indeed.
Original Observer says
Peisinger (get the spelling right) tried to make a big stink of Alison Healey being fired. Mosby disciple that he is, he conveniently neglected to mention that he fired all the office, especially those he saw as Cassilly loyalists. (Read the Aegis from four years ago.) I’m glad he’s gone. As to the rest of your charges, evidence; or it’s just a smear campaign.
Open Your Eyes says
I am not sure that the timing of the continued investigation regarding the Edgewood adult bookstore incident has anything to do with the upcoming Sheriffs’s election. Mr Gahler is running “unopposed “. Changing gears I must admit that it somewhat saddens me that that that some of the more regular Dagger posters are basically AWOL. Just after the last Presidential election a Dagger “frequent flyer “ , a self proclaimed liberal and obviously not a Trump man posting under the name of “Bob”, made and posted several comments. Some of my favorites involved him referring to President Biden as the Unifier in Chief, He also posted on numerous occasions that President Biden had our country “ on the right track” and “heading in the right direction “ .With the current ongoing issues regarding crime, inflation, immigration, the economy, the price of fuel , world stability, and Biden’s nightly gaffes I have to wonder if Bob still feels the same way about Exceptional Joe. I can understand why Bob would not want to enter on to any dialogue which would attempt to defend this clown.
Truth of the Matter says
Regardless of Mr. Gahler running unopposed the fine Sheriff has more or less ignored the issues of child sex trafficking. His Police Officers have screwed up the investigation from the word Go. Make no mistake about the timing. Gahler pulled this to position himself for bigger things. Nothing to do with little old Hazzard County where he is indeed unopposed. Of course Gahler much like his friend Hogan are delusional if they believe anyone would support them in other elected appointments. Hogans chances at the Presidency are somewhere between slim and none as a RINO.
Truth of the Matter says
There is plenty of evidence. Police investigation reports and video shows a minor in the Adult Book store. Gahler and his deputies are protecting these Adult Bookstores. Daddy Bear (a certain HCSO Deputy) who has a documented reputation in that Adult Bookstore.
Al P should have fired the Cassilly loyalists. The house needed to be cleaned of the inept that had been allowed to stay there during Cassilly. Cassilly being disbarred illustrates what was going on in that office for years. .
Original Observer says
Prosecutions, as expected from a Mosby clone, fell off tremendously under Al. And the disbarment of Cassilly was politically motivated. Oh, and you haven’t shown us your evidence.
Truth Be Told says
Well as we know prosecuting everyone has been so effective in decreasing crime. Politically motivated huh. Yeah ok. The facts of how his office handled things has nothing to do with why he was debarred? His lack of integrity has nothing to do with his disbarment? Hazard County has a record of over prosecuting and treat people as if they are GUILTY until proven INNOCENT position under the great Cassilly. The entire Cassilly Clan are about as corrupt as they come. Unfortunate that the citizens of Harford County cant seem to figure out the deal. Stack in the Sherrifs Union, Gahler, Glassman, corrupt Judges and you have what is known as a backwater poop hole. Hazard County.
Open Your Eyes says
“Well as we know prosecuting everyone has been so effective in decreasing crime.” TBT
Interesting opinion. How about alternative philosophies being employed by liberal prosecutors in states such as California, New York, Illinois, etc. These states have decriminalized many felonies and other crimes and eliminated cash bail. How is that working out? Just as a point for you to consider TBT the Office of the States Attorney is part of the Executive branch of government not the Judiciary. Their job is to review evidence and determine if under existing state law crimes may have been committed and file accordingly for same. In essence from their point of view people appear to be guilty and need to prove their innocence. It is in the Judicial System that the accused have a presumption of innocence until proven otherwise.
Furthermore, I am not sure why this obsession with a States Attorney, who has been out of office for over four years is still such a burning issue. I have noticed that TBT apparently, based on many of his/her prior post, has a long standing rub with Harford County law enforcement and the States Attorney. We will never be able to verify this but it is definitely based on some past interaction between him or her with them. Also I suspect some type of connection between TBT and Truth of the Matter. Friends, alter ego , who knows but I believe, based on writing style, content, and phrase similarities, there is some connection. However, whoever Truth of the Matter may be I will have to agree with you on at least one point. If firmly believe that Governor Hogan is a RINO who would not make a pimple on a real President’s butt. If the Attorney General of MD had a set he should have charged Hogan with a possible violation of voter fraud. Hogan, in attempt to stay close with his Democratic friends and liberal base, admitted to writing in the name of a known dead person (Ronald Reagan) for President. Shouldn’t this be considered attempted voter fraud?
Truth Be Told says
Nobody is suggesting what you imply.
The facts are that Cassilly and his policies were generally bad for Harford County. It is possible to strike a balance between what happens in NY to what Harford County is/was doing under Cassilly. First and foremost end the perceived notion that there needs to be a love affair between the SA Office and the Harford County Sheriffs department. The SA Office role is not to do the HCSO bidding by prosecuting every single thing brought to them regardless whether its frivolous and/or a waste of time. There is ample reason that their should be some check and balance between the two, Of course that might not give the HCSO the ability to continue to fill their jail and increase their and the HCSU empire in Harford County. The fact is this prosecute everyone for everything does nothing to decrease crime or increase public safety, It does however prevent real crime from being properly adjudicated because the system is gummed up with unnecessary Bull Shit.
The HCSO and HCSU need to stop mucking in candidate elections. Period end stop. It is blatant corruption their open interference in Elections. The good old boy club between the SA Office, Sheriffs, Judges, and even many Defense Attorneys is unacceptable. The SA office has an obligation to administer Justice with fairness. We saw what unfairness looked like under Cassilly and voters figured out what his hand chosen lacky (David Ryan) would bring and voted that group the hell out of office. Even Diane Adkins-Tobin knew the SA office was a dead end under Cassilly policies. Probably to the chagrin of the HCSO and HCSU because it meant some accountability for both. The Police would need to act with some integrity. Now there is a notion.
Your analysis between the various names is interesting, but frankly not relevant to anything. Who Cares? Other than you seem hell bent on making assumptions and/or are just bored. The system under Cassilly was a huge problem. Cassilly debarment albeit too little to late is ample evidence of the shenanigans that were going on for years. Unfortunately given the HCSU mucking in elections once again we appear to be headed back to the Cassilly corrupt States Attorney Office. Time will tell whether their selected puppet will reinstate the same sort of nonsense that Cassilly promoted. We shall know in short order if the dockets begin to become delayed. It wont be because there is an increase in criminal behavior. It will be because the SA is unwilling to make the tough decisions between limited resource and pleasing her master the HCSO and HCSU.
What do the voters of Harford County know. Right?
Open Your Eyes says
Again what is your continued obsession with a States Attorney who has been out of office for over four years? How is it germane to the current operation of Harford County Law Enforcement and it’s relationship with the States Attorneys Office? You have made numerous disingenuous post regarding Harford County Law Enforcement Agencies and the States Attorneys Office. Why don’t you share with the readers an account of your past interaction with them. Did they arrest and prosecute you? Did they not hire you because you couldn’t pass background requirements? What is it? You have made numerous negative comments regarding your own perception of their ineptness but have never provided specifics. Why? Respectfully it might be time to put up or shut up. Without specifics your arguments and comments are lame and meaningless.
Truth Be Told says
The ineptness of the current Harford County Sheriffs operations is self evident from the very case in this article. What is your deal with protecting them at every turn? The previous SA set a environment that was and still is wholly unacceptable. Evidenced by him eventually being debarred. There are likely numerous other cases that he played fast and loose with and withheld exculpatory evidence like in the case he was debarred on. Where there is smoke there is fire. You act as if I am the only one in Harford County who knows or has stated how corrupt the Justice System is. That Sir is simply not the case. In fact there are many in the county with the very exact same experience. They have had this experience with the States Attorneys Office, the Sheriffs Office, and the Judges on the bench.
Child Sex Trafficking is not ok. Why does the Sheriff seem to think it is? Why is that sort of activity being allowed to continue in these places of ill repute? Why was a minor inside an Adult Bookstore? Why has there been no arrests made of those that would have a minor in an adult bookstore? Seems the HCSO is asleep at the wheel. On this and many other issues in Harford County. Typical Harford County. Read the Police Reports instead of sticking your head in the sand.
Open Your Eyes says
Long before the the book store article you have been making unsubstantiated disingenuous accusations about Harford County Law Enforcement and States Attorneys Office. Could you respectfully tell the readers the real story. Why don’t you share with us your interaction with Harford County Law Enforcement and States Attorneys Office which has you butt hurt. It appears apparent that your negative interaction probably occurred during the Cassilly administration. Come on TBT share the incident with us. Right now your continued unverified allegations make you look like silly.
Truth Be Told says
Willfully withholding exculpatory evidence as Joe Cassilly office did routinely has nothing to do with politics. This convict everyone no matter what attitude is what got Joe Cassilly debarred. It should have happened years ago. Due process for a defendant is not a mere suggestion for the States Attorney Office.
