Overview
- An FBI task force searched Timothy Parsons’ Bethesda home on March 2 and seized several devices after executing federal warrants.
- Investigators reported an onsite preview of the devices found no child sexual abuse material, with a full forensic examination still pending.
- Charging documents say Parsons acknowledged receiving multiple videos and two images in February 2019 and told agents he deleted the messages.
- Court records state he replied to the images with sexually explicit comments, including “That is so hot.”
- Parsons has been placed on leave by the Justice Department and is scheduled to appear in federal court Friday in Greenbelt, with a public defender appointed and no plea entered.
