Former Maryland Delegate Robert McKee finally charged with possession of child pornography
It took seven months, but former Maryland Delegate Robert A. McKee has finally been charged in connection to possessing child pornography. Washington County deputies raided his home this past January and discovered a plethora of kiddie porn including computer images, magazines, and video tapes.
The charges are federal. In my opinion, if it was up to local authorities, McKee would never be charged. Washington County deputies confiscated a large amount of child pornography from McKee’s home on January 31. The same home he shares with his “adopted granddaughter”. Washington County Sheriff Douglas Mullendore, a friend of McKee, was present during the raid on McKee’s home. Instead of informing the public that a large stash of child pornography was found in McKee’s home, the news remained secret for two weeks. McKee continued working not only as a Maryland Delegate, but as the executive director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Washington County.
According to his attorney, McKee plans on pleading guilty in a plea agreement with the Justice Department.
