A Baltimore County
Police Officer who plead guilty to misconduct in office after being caught with
sexually explicit videos of himself while on duty received a suspended sentence
and was placed on probation.
Officer Aaron Pross was also charged with sending those same
videos to a minor though this charge has been dropped – instead the five-year
veteran of the department agreed to resign. Pross sent the video after meeting
the minor online.
The video was found on the 16-year-old girls cell phone by
her father, an ex-FBI agent who spoke to FOX45. The girl's father said he knew
instantly the man he was watching in the video was a Baltimore County police
officer. But it would take three months for the department to prove it was
Ross.
Pross' attorney fought for a sentence of probation before
judgment. Instead Pross received a suspended sentence and was placed on
probation – a conviction that will keep him out of law enforcement – at least
for the next three years.
