ROCKVILLE, Md. (ABC7) — A Bethesda father believes a loophole in Maryland's criminal statute allowed an alleged molester to wiggle his way out of criminal charges.
The father, who spoke on condition of anonymity, explains his only daughter wanted to learn how to play the electric bass guitar. It was 2006. His daughter, now 29, was 17-years-old at the time. The father found a highly-rated music instructor in Wheaton. The male instructor was in his 50s and appeared kind, gracious and dedicated to his craft.
Nearly every Saturday for two years, the father drove his daughter to the instructor's modest one-story brick home. The instructor, who ABC7 is not naming, took the teen to a spare bedroom, which he had turned into a soundproof music studio. Each lesson went for one hour.
The father would relax on the sofa in the adjacent living room, reading magazines, watching television and occasionally napping. Not once did he suspect a sliver of impropriety.
"This was a man I welcomed into my home, we fed him, we went to his concerts at area restaurants and the zoo," the father told ABC7 during a concealed identity interview. "I paid him $50 for 80 lessons, that's $4,000, and he was doing terrible things behind my back."
In August 2008, the girl, then 18, stopped taking the private music lessons and enrolled at Montgomery College. The separation wasn't hostile or unfriendly; the arrangement had simply run its course...

DeleteLaw to close sexual offense loophole introduced – Baltimore Sun
“On March 20, 2006, the House passed it 136-0. But several days before the General Assembly ended, the Senate Judiciary Committee added in the words "full-time, permanent employee." State Sen. Brian Frosh, D-Montgomery County, who chaired the committee since 2003, told the Times in July that he did not recall the amendment and didn't know why it was added.”
Prosecutors, legislators criticize 'gap' in school sex laws – Baltimore Sun
Sen. Brian E. Frosh, chairman of the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee, called making changes in the law "a very complex difficult problem" due largely to the difficulty of crafting a law to cover only the people intended to be included. "We have the problem of folks who are in a position of authority that are hard to define," he said.

In the summer of 2006, we made an appointment and visited the Montgomery College Music Department, Rockville Campus where we met with a full time music professor. He explained the music program and as a result she decided to continue her study of electric bass with MC. Then, the music professor highly recommended and provided contact information for an MC adjunct professor of electric bass, who taught at his home studio in Wheaton, MD.

ReplyDeletePerson in Position of Authority – HB223 – Died in Committee, No Vote
A bill to help close the remaining loophole in Maryland’s laws regarding persons in authority who sexually exploit children they have authority over. Statutory rape provisions protect younger children, child sexual abuse laws protect children during the time a child is actually in an adult’s care or supervision, certain school employees are always prohibited from having sex with their students, and new laws on sextortion provide the ability to prosecute those using threats of emotional distress to coerce sexual activity. However, the law still has gaps that fail to protect teenagers from sexual exploitation by extra-curricular activity instructors, scout masters, school volunteers, and other adults in authority. This bill closes these remaining gaps, so that all teens are protected. Lead sponsor: Delegate Sara Love.
Q: By choosing No Vote as their decision, does the committee _____________ such behavior?
a. Tolerate
b. Accept
c. Approve
d. Condone
e. Support
