 three counts of making false statements, and one count of illegal possession of machine guns. Kropp was indicted alongside Frederick County Sheriff Chuck Jenkins in April of 2023. Both men have pleaded not guilty to the charges. On May 3rd, a federal judge dismissed without prejudice the initial indictment against Kropp after finding that his right to a speedy trial had been violated. Kropp was re-indicted on May 29th. He's scheduled to be arraigned in U.S. District Court today.
