ANNAPOLIS, Md. —A 26-year-old martial arts instructor is facing sex charges after an alleged sexual relationship with a 14-year-old female student.
Edgewater is a town of about 10,000 souls southwest of Annapolis, on the south shore of South River.
Police and the Department of Social Services said they received a report of sexual child abuse in October 2013 in which it was alleged that Jason Webb, a martial arts instructor at East Coast Martial Arts in Edgewater, was having sexual relations with a girl he met during martial arts classes.
During the course of the investigation, police said they learned Webb began the relationship with the victim in July 2013 and it continued over a period of several months.
Police said after an interview with Webb, they learned he had inappropriate sexual contact with the girl on several occasions at his home in Annapolis.
The case was presented to the Anne Arundel County State’s Attorney's Office, which asked the Anne Arundel County Police Department to charge Webb.
An arrest warrant was issued charging Webb with child abuse, sex abuse of a minor, third- and fourth-degree sex offenses and second-degree assault.
Webb turned himself in on Feb. 20.
Anyone with any additional information on Webb or who may have been a victim is asked to contact the Criminal Investigation Division at 410-222-3566.
