WALDORF, Md. – On January 24 at 4:38 p.m., officers responded to a business on Mall Circle after a loss prevention officer observed a male who was attempting to steal clothes.

The loss prevention officer recognized the male as being the same subject who pointed a knife at him on December 28 while he stole merchandise from the same store and fled.

Fearing he might be assaulted again, the loss prevention officer called 9-1-1. Officers located the suspect and arrested him in connection with the December assault. William Kenneth Freeman, 27, of no fixed address, was arrested and charged with first-degree assault, armed robbery, theft, and second-degree assault.

On January 25, a judge ordered Freeman to be released from the Charles County Detention Center on personal recognizance with the condition he stays away from the business. Detective Hooper and Detective Tyler are investigating.

  1. No fixed address and violent charges against him and he is released on PR. No wonder they continue to commit crimes. No reason to stop. How will he receive his subpoena to appear in court with NO ADDRESS. Great job judge

  2. For that PR release, the judge should be charged as an accessory for the next crime this “human debris” commits.
