Board suspends social worker Cheryl Metzbower over criminal convictions

September 22, 2013

On September 14, 2012, the Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners suspended the license of clinical social worker Cheryl Ann Metzbower.

The Board’s document states that on her 2010 license renewal application, Metzbower answered “no” to the question regarding criminal convictions.

The Board’s investigation determined that in 2009 Metzbower pleaded guilty to assault and was given a suspended sentence and fine and in 2010 pleaded guilty to malicious destruction of property, for which she was sentenced to 60 days in jail with all but seven days suspended.

Additionally, as the time of the Board’s suspension, Metzbower was facing a February 2012 criminal charge of assault.
