Matthew Schlegel, the third-grade teacher at Severna Park Elementary, has been arrested on over 30 charges of sexual abuse involving at least eight students. The charges range from second-degree assault to sexual abuse of a minor. He has once again filed a motion to be released from jail and agreed to stay with his parents in Montgomery County. However, Circuit Court Judge Cathy Vitale said no way citing that it is not inconceivable that someone with familial and collegial support might be leading a dual life. She said that for now, the narrative belongs to the children and he will have time to refute their allegations in court.
Greenbury Point will soon have increased public access. The U.S. Navy, which manages the site, has agreed to open more areas for recreational use. This decision follows significant public interest in preserving the area’s natural beauty and ensuring it remains accessible for activities like hiking and birdwatching.
Hospice of the Chesapeake celebrated its 45th anniversary by raising $500,000 at a recent event. The funds will support various hospice and palliative care programs. The celebration included a party with auctions at the new Fluegel Center–the new home of the US Naval Academy Alumni Association.
And the best news of the day. The Smithsonian National Zoo will welcome giant pandas back after China yanked them away last year. The new pandas will arrive later this year from China, as part of the ongoing partnership between the zoo and Chinese conservation organizations. The zoo aims to continue its efforts in panda conservation and education.
Podcast stuff– Up this weekend on the Local Business Spotlight we chat with Evie and Christina from Main & Market right around the corner from me. Lot’s new and exciting happening there!
And in closing, one of the best ways to keep up on the LOCAL news is the daily news recap email–that goes at 7 pm 366 days this year. It’s free-free and paywall-free, and here’s a link to sign up. And please, do me a favor and let your friends, family, and colleagues all know about it as well!
