Groomer party mayor arrested on 50 counts of child pornography

NY Post

A Maryland mayor who recently visited the White House for a President Biden bill signing was busted Thursday on dozens of child porn counts, officials said.

Patrick Wojahn, mayor of College Park since 2015, abruptly resigned from his post just hours before he was taken into custody on charges that he possessed and passed around suspected child pornography on social media, police said.

Roughly more than two months before his arrest, Wojahn and his husband were at the White House to celebrate Biden’s signing of the Respect for Marriage Act on the South Lawn, WTOP reported at the time.

A search warrant was executed on his home at the end of February, where multiple cell phones, a storage device, a tablet and computer were seized, police said.

The investigation was jump started after the National Center for Missing and Exploited children notified county police of the suspicious social media account.
