Corporal Theodore Dennis Wolf, Sr. was 40 and a sixteen-year veteran of the Maryland State Police when he was killed on the night of March 29, 1990. While on duty patrolling Interstate 95 near the Route 175 interchange in Jessup, Maryland, he stopped a speeding vehicle that had been stolen earlier in Alexandria, Virginia. After returning to his patrol car to write a summons, he allowed the driver—who identified himself as a former police officer and showed credentials—to ride in the passenger seat.

The suspect and a passenger took Corporal Wolf’s warning book, fled, and later abandoned and set fire to the stolen car and the warning book in Baltimore County before traveling to New York. An investigation led to the apprehension of two suspects in New York; both were tried and convicted for their roles in his murder.
