Published continuously since the New Deal City of Greenbelt was founded in 1937, the News Review is delivered free to most Greenbelt residents. In 1970 we won a landmark First Amendment case in the Supreme Court. 

Update on Indecent Exposure

The man arrested last week is the dean of students at a D.C. elementary school, a former Greenbelt resident and past Prince George’s County Public Schools (PGCPS) employee. Police are looking for more victims or witnesses who may have encountered him at the lake.

Greenbelt Police are asking anyone who has been at Buddy Attick Park and had contact with Jamie Lee White, the man recently arrested and charged with indecent exposure, to contact them. Last week Greenbelt Police swiftly arrested White after he indecently exposed himself to two women at the park on November 29 (see the December 1 News Review, page 9). Although he left the scene, police were able to stop his car and arrest him based on the descriptions a caller gave of White and his vehicle.

School Administrator

White, who is 45 years old and currently resides in Hyattsville, is dean of students at Bancroft Elementary School, a public school in Northwest D.C. As of November 29 he was placed on leave. He has numerous previous charges in Maryland, ranging from orders for child support to driving on a suspended license to a felony theft, to which he pleaded guilty. According to court documents from the time, in spring 1999, White was working for PGCPS and living in Bowie. The Communication Office at PGCPS did not respond to questions from the News Review about White’s previous role with the school system.

Resident Here

Later that year, in July 1999, court records indicate White was living on Hanover Parkway in Greenbelt and had begun working for D.C. Public Schools.

Contact GPD

Greenbelt Police are asking anyone who has had any contact with White at Buddy Attick Park to call 301-474-7200 or email greenbeltpd@greenbeltmd.gov.
