The mayor of College Park, Maryland resigned yesterday after authorities arrested him on fifty-six counts of child pornography-related charges.
In a press conference, Jessica Garth, a representative from the state’s attorney’s office said “Wojahn is in custody at the prince George county department of corrections. They are awaiting a commissioner to determine if Wojahn is eligible for a bond and released until trial or he will be held without bond”
Wojahn sent in a letter of resignation Wednesday night to be effective as of Thursday. His attorney released a statement “he is cooperating fully with law enforcement. While it is too early to comment on the allegations, we will continue to cooperate as the process unfolds”. College Park city officials are “shocked and disturbed” by the arrest and charges according to a statement from the city.
