On July 10, 2019, federal authorities arrested Worsham Jr, a resident of Maryland, in connection with a string of violent crimes. According to a federal indictment filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, Worsham Jr was charged with multiple counts of armed robbery, assault, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The indictment alleged that Worsham Jr had committed a series of violent robberies in the Baltimore area, during which he used a firearm to intimidate and threaten his victims. In one of the incidents, Worsham Jr allegedly shot a bystander who attempted to intervene, leaving the victim seriously injured. The prosecution presented evidence that Worsham Jr had a prior conviction for a violent crime, rendering him ineligible to possess a firearm.
