A Christian youth group leader from Catonsville has been accused of inappropriately touching teenagers under his care and sending them nude photos of himself, court records show.

Kevin Blair Guy, 32, of Reisterstown, was indicted on 73 charges Monday, including 29 counts of sexually abusing minors, for alleged incidents between 2018 and June 2024. According to the Maryland Judiciary, he has been held without bond since his arrest in mid-March.

In charging documents, Baltimore County Police detectives outlined the accounts of five boys, now ranging in age from 15 to 19, who said they’d met Guy through Youth for Christ’s Campus Life, a social and spiritual program offered at churches and schools across the country.

The alleged victims were part of a group in Catonsville, police said, whose meetings were held at the Bishop Cummins Reformed Episcopal Church.

Guy started working for Metro Maryland Youth for Christ when he was 25, police said, but is no longer employed, according to the organization’s executive director, Stephen Kaiss.

In a statement, Youth for Christ wrote that it was aware of the “current situation” at Metro Maryland.

“YFC continues to maintain the highest standards of morality and personal conduct for all employees and volunteers,” the organization wrote, declining to comment further.

Guy’s defense attorney, James McQuinn, did not immediately respond Tuesday to phone calls and emailed requests for comment.

Detectives were referred to Guy’s case in June 2024, according to charging documents, and an arrest warrant was issued in late February. During that time, authorities interviewed several people, including the alleged victims, Guy and leaders from Youth for Christ — the latter of whom told police inappropriate behavior had been reported to them.

The Baltimore Sun does not name minor victims or victims of sexual assault unless they ask to be identified.

According to charging documents, Guy made inappropriate remarks and movements toward the teenagers on their way to youth group meetings, during get-togethers and sometimes after.

The alleged victims told detectives that Guy was open about his sexual experiences with other men, sometimes when he was high or drunk, and also about his body. Through Snapchat, some of the teens received nude photos or videos, police said, or received sexually-charged messages from Guy in private group chats, including one called “purple pickle.”

Multiple teenagers said Guy had offered them some kind of sexual gift when they would turn 18, though some were touched or sent photographs before then, police said. Guy would ask some of the teenagers for photos in return, detectives said. In two cases, he accessed explicit photos of a minor in their phone, according to charging documents.

Police said they had received a warrant to search Guy’s cell phone, for which he gave investigators the passcode, but that “there was no new information obtained” from it.

Almost all of the touching described by authorities involved slapping, tapping and rubbing the teenagers over their clothes. One said Guy had choked them for “a few seconds” as they walked into the Catonsville church, police said.

Most of the alleged incidents took place online, at or on the way to Bishop Cummins, investigators said. A spokesperson for the church did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

One teenager told police that Guy had recorded another student at his Reisterstown home as the boy got out of the shower. That student, police said, did not want to be interviewed. The person who informed authorities said they had been shown the video.

Detectives spoke with Guy and his attorney in late October, according to charging documents.

Guy told them he would wrestle with some of the students and touch their legs to “get their attention,” and while he spoke of his experiences with other men, he “doesn’t think” he would mention specifics.

According to charging documents, Guy also confirmed he uses Snapchat, but police said he was “shocked” about the video allegations, telling them that “does not sound like something he would do.”

Guy is being held without bond at the county detention center in Towson.

As of Tuesday, a hearing has not been scheduled.
