Suspect in woman’s disappearance charged with indecent exposure

A Gaithersburg man suspected in the disappearance of his vacation partner in Aruba was arrested in Annapolis after he was found naked in a sport-utility vehicle with a woman, police said.

Gary Giordano, 51, was charged with one count of indecent exposure, Annapolis police said. A Tennessee woman identified as 45-year-old Carol Ann Bock was also charged with one count of indecent exposure.

On May 18, officers went to a parking garage at 150 Gorman St. for a report of possible sexual activity inside a vehicle. According to a police report, officers found Giordano and Bock lying down in the rear cargo area of a Cadilac Escalade. 

One officer saw Bock with her left breast exposed and a blanket hanging from the left side of the SUV’s interior that seemed to be an effort to hide the pair’s activity, the report said. The officer shined a light on the SUV, and Bock pulled a sheet up to cover her breast and Giordano adjusted a towel over his midsection.

When Giordano was adjusting the towel, another police officer saw Giordano’s genitals, according to the report. This officer told him to put clothes on and exit the vehicle, and the officer saw that Giordano was naked. Bock was also told to get dressed and leave the SUV.

Giordano was suspected in the disappearance of Robyn Gardner of Frederick. He was held in custody in Aruba for several months but was released in November.
