On January 31, 2025, Julian Everett, a 41-year-old resident of New Carrollton, Maryland, was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison and an additional 20 years of supervised release. U.S. District Judge Deborah L. Boardman delivered the sentence following Everett's guilty plea for kidnapping minors and producing child sexual abuse material.
The sentencing was announced by Erek L. Barron, U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland, alongside Special Agent in Charge William J. DelBagno from the FBI's Baltimore Field Office; Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Aisha N. Braveboy; and Chief Malik Aziz of the Prince George’s County Police Department.
Everett admitted to sexually abusing multiple victims at his home in New Carrollton during the years 2005, 2015, and 2016. Among these victims were four minors.
One incident occurred on July 11, 2005, when Everett transported a minor identified as Victim 2 from Virginia to his residence. There he provided her with a drink before engaging in non-consensual sexual intercourse and taking nude photographs without her consent.
In another case on August 23, 2015, Everett drove an adult victim from a Washington D.C. nightclub to his home after providing her with a beverage at a gas station. He then engaged in non-consensual sexual acts with her.
On August 21, 2016, Everett brought Victim 1 from Washington D.C. to his workplace at a barbershop before taking her to his home where she lost consciousness after consuming a drink he prepared. She awoke to find him performing sexual acts on her while recording the encounter without consent.
Everett was arrested on March 21, 2019, in Prince George’s County after authorities discovered images of child sexual abuse material on his electronic devices through a search warrant.
A fourth victim reported an assault that took place between March and April of 2015 when she was taken from Washington D.C. to Everett's home where he performed non-consensual sexual acts which he recorded digitally.
This case is part of Project Safe Childhood initiated by the Department of Justice in May 2006 aimed at combating child sexual exploitation and abuse by utilizing resources across federal, state, and local levels.
U.S. Attorney Barron commended the efforts of law enforcement agencies involved in this investigation including the FBI and Prince George’s County authorities along with Assistant U.S. Attorneys Timothy Hagan and Thomas Sullivan who prosecuted the case.
