The Upper Moreland Township Police said that an attempt to serve a warrant turned into multiple charges for two individuals after a girlfriend attempted to hide a registered sex offender boyfriend.
According to a criminal complaint filed by police, the Upper Moreland Police Department were made aware of a man living in the Hatboro section of the township. Once they were made aware, police said they attempted to serve active arrest warrants to Bryan J. Tiedeman, 39, of the 400 block of Newton Road in Hatboro.
Tiedeman has an active bench warrant for an incident that took place in 2022, in Bucks County for felony charges of aggravated assault with attempts to cause serious bodily injury with extreme indifference, said police. According to court documents, Tiedeman was wanted for a parole violation on May 24, and a warrant was issued on May 31 of 2024.
Additionally, he had a bench warrant issued on Aug. 23, 2024, for a failure to appear for court regarding a vehicle offense, as well as a failure to verify address (Megan’s Law) on July 25, 2024.
According to police reports, Tiedeman was convicted in 2011 of sexual assault in an incident involving a complainant who was unconscious or unaware of penetration occurring in Northampton County’s Court of Common Pleas. Due to this conviction, he is to remain a lifetime registrant of the Megan’s Law registration of sexual offenders, police said.
To remain in compliance of his sentence, Tiedeman has three business days to report any new residency with the Pennsylvania State Police. Police reported that Tiedeman last connected with police on March 20, 2024, when he reported his address as being in the 300 block of Garden Avenue, Horsham.
The police said they first attempted a phone call with Amanda Lynn Mauceri, also of the 400 block of Newton Road in Hatboro, known to be Tiedeman’s girlfriend on Oct. 15. Mauceri told police that Tiedeman was not at the residence, police said.
On Nov. 13, around 8:51 p.m., police said they located the Chevy Tahoe registered to both Tiedeman and Mauceri in the parking lot of the Extended Stay of America, located at 537 Dresher Road in Horsham. According to police reports, the vehicle left and drove to the Walmart in Willow Grove (located at 2101 Blair Mill Road), when police attempted to conduct a traffic stop.
The car “briefly stopped,” as a female exited the car, police said, but then fled the area at a high rate of speed northbound on Blair Mill Road. Officers did not pursue the vehicle at that time, said the complaint.
On Nov. 14 around 3:05 p.m., police responded to the address in the 400 block of Newtown Road in Hatboro to meet with a landlord who lived at the home and had been for the past 10 years. He said he was renting an upstairs until of the home to both Mauceri and Tiedeman, as he had since July 2024. The landlord said he was unaware that Tiedeman was a sex offender.
The landlord, police said, had called authorities on Oct. 15, stating that terms of the “verbal lease agreement” and that he thought the tenants had outstanding warrants. The landlord said he had looked up the tenants’ names on the county sheriff’s site to find he had an active bench warrant after Mauceri told him “He can’t have police contact,” according to the landlord.
According to the complaint filed by police, the landlord told both tenants they could not live there with warrants out for their arrest, and that later that night Mauceri was seen on the landlord’s security camera “sneaking him [Tiedeman] out.”
Police said that Mauceri lied to police officers when asked about Tiedeman’s whereabouts, stating “she wasn’t with him,” and that “he doesn’t stay here.” After investigation, police said that Tiedeman’s vehicle nor Megan’s Law registrations were updated with his address, where the landlord said he’d been living since July.
Mauceri faces five felony charges, including conduct relating to sex offenders by withholding information, conceal or attempting to conceal, providing false information, hindering the apprehension or harboring or concealing a criminal, and providing false information.
Mauceri will face Magisterial District Judge Thomas P. Murt on Dec. 31 at 9:30 a.m. for a preliminary hearing on the matter. An unsecured bail was set at $10,000 in a hearing on Nov. 18.
Tiedeman is to attend a preliminary hearing at a date yet to be determined. He is charged with three felony counts including of failure to register with the Pennsylvania State Police, failure to verify address or be photographed, and failure to provide accurate registration information.
He is presently listed as “Absconded” in the Megan’s Law database, meaning a “warrant of arrest has been issued based upon the offender’s failure to comply with their sex offender registration requirements,” said the state’s website.
