Sentencing is scheduled for Oct. 13.

In February, Christopher Carroll, 36, was charged with 20 counts of causing another person to ingest bodily fluid and three counts of malicious destruction of property. The charges were preceded by a months-long investigation of alleged misconduct by Carroll.
According to charging documents, the investigation began after a Baltimore County Fire Department supervisor filed a complaint alleging that they were made aware of videos posted to an X account of a nude Carroll engaged in sexual acts “that would cause others to unknowingly come into contact with or ingest [his] bodily fluid.”
Prosecutors described some videos during Carroll’s bail review hearing in February, saying that they showed Carroll ejaculating and urinating on county property, including in an ambulance, on an air-conditioning vent and in a communal pot of chili.
Charging documents state that investigators also found a video showing Carroll walking up to an ice machine with his penis exposed through the fly of his pants.
“They always say, don’t drink the yellow snow,” the caption of the video reportedly says. “But I’m just trying to make a slushy!!”
In response to the allegations, Baltimore County officials spent roughly $263,000 on hazmat cleaning and new ice machines at all 25 of its professional fire stations and on certain floors of a public building in Towson.
Carroll could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison and could be fined up to $2,500 for each count of causing another person to ingest bodily fluid.
In July, Baltimore County State’s Attorney Scott Shellenberger said that, as part of a plea agreement, if Carroll pleaded to three counts of causing another person to ingest bodily fluid, prosecutors would recommend that he receive a 30-year sentence with all but 20 years suspended and five years of probation.
Carroll has been held without bail since February.
