On April 11, 2025, Daniel Phillip Coulson, 40, of Huntingtown, was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for sex abuse of a minor. The sentence was imposed by Calvert County Circuit Court Judge Mark, W. Carmean.
In 2019, Child Protective Services opened an investigation into alleged sexual abuse of a minor child. Ultimately, the case was closed for lack of evidence. In 2023, additional evidence was brought forward, the victim was re-interviewed, and she disclosed that Coulson had abused her. Coulson was arrested, advised of his Miranda rights, and confessed.
Coulson will be on 5 years supervised probation upon release and required to register as a sex offender for life.
This case was prosecuted by Calvert County Senior Assistant State’s Attorney Rebecca N. Cordero.
