A Prince George’s County woman has been convicted in a serious domestic case involving her teenage daughter. According to officials, 33-year-old Talecka Brown was found guilty on multiple felony charges, including attempted first-degree murder, first-degree child abuse, first-degree assault, and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.
The incident occurred on September 23, 2024, at the family’s home in Seat Pleasant. Officers responded to the residence shortly before 5 p.m. and located a 13-year-old who had sustained a serious injury. The child received immediate medical attention, and investigators from the Prince George’s County Police Department began reviewing evidence connected to the case.
Detectives examined residential surveillance footage, which showed the teen returning from school and entering the home shortly before the incident. According to court records, a disagreement inside the residence escalated, ultimately resulting in the injury. Officials reported that Brown initially provided information that did not align with the evidence collected at the scene. Further investigation, along with evidence recovered from the home, led authorities to conclude that no outside individuals were involved.
During the investigation, Brown acknowledged that she and her daughter were the only people inside the home at the time. Prosecutors stated that the case highlighted the importance of thorough investigative work and the role of technology in confirming key details.
Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Tara H. Jackson called the case a significant reminder of the need to safeguard children and commended the victim for cooperating with authorities throughout the legal process.
Brown faces the possibility of a lengthy prison sentence, with a maximum penalty of life imprisonment under Maryland law. A formal sentencing hearing is scheduled for February 19, 2026.
Officials say the case underscores ongoing efforts within the county to protect vulnerable minors and ensure that incidents involving serious harm are addressed with urgency and accountability.
