Vanderpool was initially arrested in December in connection with the September incident, before a judge released him on bond. He was arrested again Wednesday and was being held without bond, according to court records.

Prince George’s County Police Chief Hank Stawinski called the allegations troubling and asked the public to report any other incidents involving Vanderpool. Prince George’s police investigated the incident.

“This conduct creates . . . concerns that we may have other people that have been impacted, whether as victims of crime or relationships with the individual in question,” Stawinski said at a news conference Wednesday.

No other victims have yet come forward, Stawinski said.

An attorney for Vanderpool did not immediately return a request for comment. The Fairmount Heights police department declined to comment on the case. Vanderpool resigned at some point after the incident.

Stawinski said “sharp-eyed” detectives uncovered the fact that Vanderpool was HIV positive during the course of the investigation, but he declined to say how, as the case is pending.

Stawinski said when detectives discovered Vanderpool was HIV positive, they preemptively took the woman to get a medical evaluation, and she was provided with preventive medication. The investigation is ongoing, and no one else has been charged in connection with the case.

Vanderpool allegedly stopped the woman for speeding around 11:20 p.m. on Sept. 6 in Capitol Heights, not far from the Fairmount Heights town limits in Prince George’s County, according to charging documents. In December, police said they were still investigating whether a traffic violation had occurred. Stawinski declined to comment on what the investigation had determined in that respect.

Vanderpool asked the woman to get out of the car because she did not have a driver’s license, police said. The woman became upset, and Vanderpool told her he was going to have her car impounded, charging documents say.

A second officer handcuffed the woman while Vanderpool called a towing company, according to charging documents. Vanderpool noticed condoms in the armrest of the car and asked the woman if she was a prostitute.

After the car was towed, Vanderpool took the woman back to the Fairmount Heights police station, charging documents say.

“So what are we going to do about this,” Vanderpool asked the woman, according to police charging documents. He then told her to have sex with him or be arrested and go to jail, according to the charging documents.

The woman said she agreed because she feared for her safety and was unable to leave the police station, charging documents state. Afterward, Vanderpool wrote up citations for the woman, leaving her “confused and crying,” the documents allege.
