Do you recognize this man? Police ask more victims of alleged child predator to step forward

FAIRFAX, Va. — A man accused of having inappropriate communication with a child online and attempting to lure them to a location for sex may have more victims out there, police say.

On June 7, just before 7 p.m., detectives got a tip from the community about a man who was talking to a child inappropriately online. The man was found by officers at a location in Tysons Corner, where he tried to lure the child to, in order to engage in sex.

After an investigation, detectives arrested Gerry Frank Burde, 41, of Herndon. Evidence related to the investigation was collected at this time.

Burde was taken into custody in Fairfax County and charged with using a communications system to solicit a minor, attempted forcible intercourse with a victim under 13, and indecent liberties with a child under 15.

Detectives believe Burde may have tried to target more children through platforms such as Snapchat (username: drunkslovepunch) or Whisper (username: Temp_Ex). Anyone who interacted with Burde online or in-person is asked to call police at 703-246-7800, option 6, and share whatever information they have.
