Annapolis police officer charged with stealing TVs, diapers, AC units, other items while moonlighting for Arbutus WalmartAn Annapolis police detective who moonlights at a Walmart in Baltimore County was charged with stealing five TVs and more than 60 other items from the business.
Gerrard Lamont Williams Jr. was charged with one count of a felony theft scheme for stealing more than $3,600 from an Arbutus Walmart Supercenter between February and March. Baltimore County police said Williams is seen on surveillance camera loading the items in his unmarked police car while working security and wearing a vest that read “police.”
Baltimore County police arrested Williams on Wednesday, according to online court records. He was released on his own recognizance. Court records did not list an attorney for Williams as of Thursday afternoon.

Stanley Brandford. He previously served as an officer at Baltimore City school police, according to a Facebook post from the police department from his swearing-in.
