On May 12, 2021, the Anne Arundel County Child Abuse Unit initiated an investigation in reference to a report of a specific account that was directly associated in uploading child pornographic images to a particular internet site. The information was provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), which is a non-profit organization whose mission is to find missing children, reduce child sexual exploitation and prevent child victimization.

As a result of issuing and executing several court orders, detectives identified a suspect as well as his place of residence.  On June 8, 2021, detectives executed a residential search warrant in the 1000 block of Big Baer Drive, Glen Burnie, Maryland.  The suspect who was identified as Frank Marvin Rosen Jr, a 47 year-old-male of the same address, later arrived at the residence.  Numerous digital devices were taken into custody and secured as evidence in order that the devices could be analyzed. 

Upon the conclusion of the investigation, approximately (30) images/videos of Child Sexual Abuse Material were located.  On January 19, 2021, an application for Charges was submitted to the Anne Arundel County Court Commissioner’s Office as a warrant was issued for the arrest of the suspect charging him with (10) counts of Possession of Child Pornography and (10) counts of Distribution of Child Pornography.  On January 19, 2021, the suspect was placed under arrest without incident.
