Former Cambridge Mayor Andrew Bradshaw will avoid a little over five years in prison thanks to the plea deal.
In another instance, on April 15, 2021, Bradshaw posted a nude photo in a subReddit account titled “Chubby” with the caption, “Ready to ride you,” prosecutor said.
When he was interviewed by investigators, he admitted to law enforcement agents that he created the Reddit accounts and posted the victim’s nudes.“Anyone who abuses the trust and confidence of another to degrade and humiliate them, particularly through the use of a forum as powerful and pervasive as the Internet, must be held accountable,” State Prosecutor Charlton T. Howard, III said in a statement.
“Such actions are especially egregious when committed by an individual holding a public leadership role of power and authority,” said Howard. Under Maryland law, it is illegal to distribute a private visual representation of another without their consent which exposes their intimate body parts or displays them engaged in sexual activity, with the intent to harm, harass, intimidate, threaten or coerce the person depicted.
