November 16

The murder of Brian O'Neill Jones appears to be totally senseless (the third senseless Jones death this week). The victim left behind a wife and three children, ages 6 months, two and five years.

A member of the Cutthroat gang who was 13 when he shot Jerrod Hamlett, 23, will be tried as a juvenile. (See the June 16 conversation with Donny Moses).

Trail has begun in NY for Irv Lorenzo "Gotti" of Muder Inc. Records, accused of laundering money for Baltimore drug dealer "Supreme" McGriff.

Federal prosecutors have five years to file murder charges against Leeander Blake (famous as the 3rd Baltimorean to visit the Supreme Court since Thurgood Marshall).

Just goes to show racism still exists when it comes to our judicial system. If you shoot a black person you have a 36% chance that somebody will care (hence the 36% clear rate of Baltimore City murders). If you shoot whitey the media will continue to make it headline news for years to come....http://wjz.com/local/local_story_320080616.html

Pathetic.

Cham you have no idea just how true that is. i can relate from my brother's murder... a shor blurb but when a white teen was shot in this same neighborhood it was on the news for days. Pathetic doesn't begin to describe it.
