Baltimore Counselor Charged In Sex Assault Of Disabled Men

BALTIMORE (AP) -- A Baltimore counselor has been charged in the sexual abuse of two men living at a home for the developmentally disabled.

Baltimore County police said Wednesday that 63-year-old Gary Lee Toft was arrested Oct. 23 on numerous charges of sex offenses, perverted practice and vulnerable adult abuse. He's being held on $350,000 bail.

Toft's attorney did not return a message seeking comment Wednesday.

Police say Toft was a residential counselor at the facility, called Creative Options, and that he abused two adult male residents in his care. Police say the abuse occurred over several months and involved sexual acts.

Toft was previously arrested Sept. 14 on similar charges by Baltimore City police, stemming from accusations against him by one man at Creative Options.
