PASADENA, Md. — Tina Lorie Ford, 46, of Dundalk, was arrested on April 8 in Pasadena, Maryland, following a dispute over an alleged peace order violation that escalated into a larger legal battle involving multiple charges in two Maryland counties.
Court records show that Anne Arundel County police responded to a call from Ford, who reported being locked out of her RV parked at a home in the 600 block of Center Street in Pasadena.
When officers arrived, they spoke with the homeowner, who informed them that she had obtained a peace order against Ford, barring her from the entire property, including the yard and surrounding grounds.
The homeowner accused Ford of repeatedly trespassing and leaving trash and miscellaneous items on her porch, which is expressly prohibited by the active peace order.
After verifying the order through official channels, officers determined that Ford was in violation and arrested her.
A subsequent records check revealed an outstanding warrant for Ford in St. Mary’s County for second-degree assault and indecent exposure from April 2024.
Ford previously pleaded guilty in September 2024 to assault and one count of indecent exposure, receiving suspended sentences and probation.
Following her arrest, Ford was taken to Annapolis’ Jennifer Road Detention Center for booking and processing. She was initially released after posting $500 in unsecured personal bond.
However, due to an outstanding St. Mary’s County warrant, she was detained pending further proceedings.
Ford was ordered held without bond at a bail review hearing on April 10 before Judge Karen Christy Holt Chesser in St. Mary’s County District Court, pending a competency hearing on April 22 and a probation violation hearing on May 20.
Ford is facing misdemeanor charges in Anne Arundel County for violating a peace order. Her trial is scheduled for June 4 in Annapolis District Court.
