The Frederick County Sheriff’s Office is actively investigating the deaths of a 67-year-old woman and her 34-year-old son, who were discovered deceased inside their residence. Deputies responded to the home on Baldridge Circle on Monday afternoon after a family member reported finding the individuals unresponsive.
Upon arrival at the scene, first responders confirmed the presence of two deceased adults within the residence. The identities of the deceased are being withheld out of respect for the family. Detectives from the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office have taken charge of the investigation.

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
Preliminary findings suggest that the circumstances leading to their deaths were contained within the home and involved only the individuals present. The Sheriff’s Office has stated that they are not searching for any suspects and there is no indication of any public safety threat. The investigation remains ongoing, and both individuals have been transported to the Maryland Office of the Chief Medical Examiner for autopsies. The official cause and manner of death are pending the results of these examinations and the full completion of the investigation.
Due to the active nature of the inquiry, further details regarding the specifics of the incident will not be released at this time. Anyone with additional information that could assist the investigation is encouraged to contact Detective Heerema at 301-600-1046.
