Columbus Man Indicted In Toddler’s Death

Cameron Beckford
City of Frederick, Maryland
A Franklin County Grand Jury has indicted Kurt Flood in the death of 14-month old Cameron Beckford.

A Franklin County Grand Jury today returned an indictment against a man they say was responsible for the death of 14-month old Cameron Beckford.

Beckford’s body was found last December in a knapsack in Big Walnut Creek.

Twenty four-year old Kurt Flood was indicted on five charges today including felonious assault.

If convicted, Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien says, Flood faces a possible sentence of 23 years in prison.

Flood’s indictment follows the involuntary manslaughter plea by the toddler’s mother last week.

Flood is due back in court on Wednesday.
