As a result of an ongoing investigation, a Volunteer Chief with Brooke Volunteer Fire Department has been arrested for three counts of forcible sodomy.
Friday morning, detectives with the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office executed search warrants at a Stafford home and at Brooke Volunteer Fire Department, 222 Andrew Chapel Road. The search warrants are part of an ongoing investigation of forcible sodomy. Potential evidence was seized at both locations.
Three warrants for forcible sodomy were obtained and served on Gerald Moore, 28, of Stafford. Moore is a Volunteer Chief at the Brooke Volunteer Fire Department. The charges stem from events that occurred in 2016, while Moore was a volunteer with the Hartwood Volunteer Fire Department. The victim in these cases was a juvenile at the time and not affiliated with any Stafford County Fire & Rescue Department.
Moore is being held without bond at the Rappahannock Regional Jail. Detective J.G. Wright III is the lead investigator in this case and the investigation is ongoing. Moore has been placed on Administrative Leave by the Stafford County Fire & Rescue Department pending the outcome of the investigation.
