Deputies from the Talbot County Sheriff’s Office arrested Trappe
Town Council commissioner Gregory Fries Oct. 7 after allegations of
a sexual assault were reported to police.
Fries, 31, was arrested and charged with first- and second-degree
rape, third- and fourth-degree sex offense, first- and second-degree
assault and reckless endangerment in connection to a sexual assault
that reportedly occurred inside a Trappe home in early July.
Fries was sworn in as a commissioner on the Trappe Town Council on
July 6.
TCSO detectives received the report of a sexual assault in
September. Further police investigation into the case revealed that
Fries brought the adult female victim back to his residence in
Trappe, where he physically and sexually assaulted her.
According to charging documents, Fries reportedly brought the woman
into his bedroom, straddled her and pinned her body down to the bed.
The victim told police that she told Fries she did not want to do
this, but Fries then had non-consensual sex with her for an unknown
period of time, according to the documents.
