Baltimore County Police have charged Brandon Henry Sukeforth, 22, of the 8200-block of Quarterfield Road, 21144 with multiple sex offenses against two Baltimore County teenagers.
On October 4, a mother of a 14-year-old boy contacted the police to report that she believed her son was engaging in sexual activity with an adult male because she had found suspicious messages and phone calls between the two. Detectives were able to confirm that sexual activity had occurred between the 14-year-old and the suspect, who was found to be 22 years old, throughout the month of September.
During the investigation, detectives learned that there was a second victim, a 13-year-old boy. Detectives confirmed that sexual activity between the victim and the suspect had occurred during the month of February. The suspect was 21 years old at the time of those offenses.
The suspect used the Facebook profile “Brayden Clark (Brandon)” during his communications with one of the victims. He also used the e-mail address “itsbraydenn@gmail.com” to communicate with victims. Brandon Sukeforth told one victim he was 17 years old, and told the other victim that he was 19 years old.
Brandon Sukeforth was arrested on October 11, and has been charged with two counts of sexual solicitation of a minor, two counts of fourth degree sex offense, two counts of third degree sex offense, two counts of perverted practice, and one count of second degree sex offense. He is currently being held at the Baltimore County Detention Center.
Detectives believe that there may be additional victims, and are asking anyone with information or concerns to contact the Baltimore County Police Department at 410-307-2020
