North Carolina Democrat Resigns After Arrest on Multiple Child Sex Crime Charges [WATCH]

North Carolina state lawmaker Cecil Brockman has resigned from the General Assembly following his arrest on multiple child sex crime charges involving a 15-year-old, as reported by The New York Post.

Brockman, 41, a Democrat representing Guilford County since 2015, submitted his resignation letter to the House clerk’s office on Friday. The announcement came shortly after bipartisan leaders, including Democratic Governor Josh Stein, called for him to step down.

Court records show that Brockman was arrested on October 8 and charged with two counts of statutory sexual offense with a child and one count of taking indecent liberties with a minor. The alleged incident occurred around August 15.

In his resignation letter, Brockman wrote that he needed to focus on his defense due to the serious nature of the accusations. “As a result, I am currently unable to fulfill my duty and service to my constituents,” he said.

According to police and court filings, Brockman met the teenager in May through an online app. Guilford County District Attorney Avery Crump told the court that Brockman later tried to locate the teen by using a tracking app and even called 911 in an attempt to reach the individual.

Brockman has been held at the Guilford County Jail since his arraignment on a $1.05 million bond and has been ordered not to contact the victim.

Earlier Friday, Republican House Speaker Destin Hall announced the creation of a bipartisan committee to investigate the allegations and to recommend expulsion if necessary.

“The bipartisan House committee will investigate the charges and recommend expulsion if necessary,” Hall said in a press release.

Following Brockman’s resignation, Hall issued a statement saying, “His departure spares the House from a difficult expulsion process and brings closure to this troubling chapter.”

I’ve just received word that Representative Cecil Brockman has resigned from the North Carolina House. This is a necessary step toward accountability. As I’ve said before, such actions have no place in our society, much less in the NC House. #ncpol pic.twitter.com/XyMPJgmAhe

Under state law, Democratic officials in Guilford County will appoint a replacement to serve the remainder of Brockman’s two-year term, which runs through the end of 2026.

The Guilford County District Attorney’s Office confirmed that a bond review hearing for Brockman is scheduled for Monday.
