Maryland Judge Kills Himself Moments Before Arrest for Child Sex Abuse
A Maryland judge killed himself on Friday morning, just as the feds showed up at his Henderson home to arrest him in a child sex abuse case.
Caroline County Circuit Judge Jonathan Newell, 50, had been on a leave of absence since July after becoming ensnared in an investigation over allegations that he had a hidden camera that captured naked images of boys in his bathroom. When FBI agents showed up at his door Friday morning to arrest him on a federal criminal complaint, they found him “suffering from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound,” the Maryland U.S. Attorney’s Office announced Friday. He was pronounced dead at 6:43 a.m.
“Maryland State Police will lead the investigation into the apparent suicide,” prosecutors said in a news release on Friday afternoon,
On Friday, Newell’s neighbor, Kimberly Keith, posted pictures to Facebook that appeared to show FBI agents stationed outside of the judge’s house demanding over a speaker for him to come out. She wrote that she heard sounds that she believed were gunshots, followed not long after by an ambulance.
this is a list of the meetings where they do training seminars. for anyone who wants to do a “proactive investigation” or create a “registry” http://www.adfsolutions.com/news/2020-icac-conferences-united-states
It makes you wonder how many CP trials this guy presided over where they showed the evidence to the jury. Maybe that fired some deviant attraction in his brain that was laid dormant. I’m just curious as to what genesis event triggered his attraction to this material.
This man had a problem. He just happened to be a judge. One tragedy is that he didn’t ask for help beofre offending. No one feels they can ask for help with something like this without being betrayed im sure. The fact that he was a judge means nothing really. If your a janitor, mail man or whatever. You still know it’s wrong. He clearly didn’t feel like he could live with the consequences of what he did that’s why IMO he committed suicide. Him killing himself does not hurt any less to his family and friends because he was a man. Yeah he if anyone should have known better. But the same could be said about anyone who did exactly what he did. I wish he would have lived. He would have been an amazing witness for the damaged the registry does once he was released. It’s a tragedy no matter who he was.

FamilyWatch sounds like a gossip site to me. Hear ye, hear ye so and so has skeletons in their closet, so make sure you lock your doors because the boogeyman are near you.
Kills himself because he believed he could not endure what he had sentenced so many of us to endure. When are they gonna wise up?
Crazy to think some judges perceive people accused of sex offenses as monsters and sentence them harshly; while they do similar actions and commit suicide. If being on the registry isn’t punishment and punitive why did he commit suicide, after all it’s only civil administration regulation.
I suspect he was more concerned about the 15 year federal minimum for production. As everyone knows, prison is not easy for cops, judges, prosecutors and sex offenders. He had three strikes.
Ed C….
In Most Jurisdictions, Cops, Judges, Prosecutors and the rest of the ‘FLOCK’, are generally housed in special housing for ‘Protection’; in FLORI-DUH, they do this as well in other States!
…they get Room Service 3 times a day; their own rec area; their own tv room!
pretty sweet deal! ha!
In Federal protective compounds, former judges, cops, & sex offenders are housed together, under the same conditions.
What drove this man to suicide was being exposed as a predator and being unable to imagine a future as neither judge nor prosecutor.
