BALTIMORE, MD.- Last Monday, a 33-year-old Brookland Park, Maryland, man and child predator learned he will be spending the next two decades in federal prison after being sentenced for sexually enticing teen girls on Snapchat to send him sexually explicit images of themselves engaging in sexually explicit conduct.

     According to U.S. Attorney Kelly O. Hayes, on Monday, November 24, 2025, Anthony Forame, IV,  33, of Brooklyn Park, Maryland, appeared in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland and was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Deborah K. Chasanow to 240 months in federal prison, to be followed by a lifetime of supervised release for his previously entered guilty plea to multiple federal child sexual exploitation offenses.

Forame Previously Admitted To Sexually Enticing Teen Girls;

     Forame previously appeared in Federal Court in Baltimore, Maryland, and pleaded guilty to a federal information charging him with nine counts of Sexual Exploitation of a Minor.

According To Court Documents;

     According to the charging information and statements made during Forame’s plea allocution, beginning in late 2023 and lasting through the spring of 2024, Forame utilized his Snapchat account to meet teenage girls online. Forame then coerced and enticed the child victims to provide him with sexually explicit images, or in some instances, sexual acts in person. 

     Forame falsely represented to the girls that he was nineteen years old to get the kids to interact with him. Forame, in many instances, promised to provide the girls with vapes or marijuana in exchange for explicit images or sex acts. 

     When some of the teen victims attempted to end their engagement, Forame then threatened to expose the girls’ images. The victims, ages 13 to 16, were middle school and high school students. During his plea allocution, Forame admitted to engaging in the conduct with at least nine child victims from September 2023, and lasting through his May 2024 arrest.

     The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the U.S. Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
