some of the results of studying Prisoner Release stats (from LaVigne, et al. 2003):


In 2001, the State of Maryland released 9,448 prisoners who had been sentenced to more than a year in prison. Of these, 97 percent stayed in the state, with well over half returning to one jurisdiction in the state, Baltimore City. The flow was even further concentrated in six highly impaired Baltimore communities, which each received 159 to 277 prisoners: Southwest Baltimore, Greater Rosemont, Sandtown-Winchester/Harlem Park, Greenmount East, Clifton-Berea, and Southern Park Heights. Baltimore County, at 10 percent, and Prince George's County, at 6 percent, were among the other locales to which the most prisoners returned.

my take:
We have an exceptionally large population of career hoods. It's who they are; what they do. Stop trying to identify some criminogenic object to which to ascribe culpability. It's the people. Just plain, ol' rotten people. Lock em' back up. It's where they belong. No sympathy.

Baltimore logs first murders of the year : http://wbal.com/news/story.asp?articleid=38918

On the subject of murder, note the following:

New York City, pop. of 8,000,000+ has about 1.65 murders per day.

Stinky little Baltimore (620,000 pop.)is about twice that for the first day of 2006.

Not twice the per capita rate... twice the actual number!

Valdez V. Fisher, Jr.
The Baltimore Author Who Means Business!

Perhaps by now you've heard of Valdez V. Fisher, Jr. He's the 31 year old author of the self-help/motivational book I Ain't Bitin' My Tongue. Fisher, determined to get the word out, has launched a staggering 42,000+ emails since the inception of his book in 2005. The emails have been directed to anyone and everyone he felt could be of assistance in his endeavor, from the media to politicians. His youth targeted book addresses such critical issues as self-esteem, parenting, wealth management, education, selective role models, choices, and post traumatic recovery. When asked "What makes you the expert on these issues?" he responded "I never claimed to be an expert. I am merely a young man who has made many mistakes, and would like to prevent my peers from falling prey to the same pitfalls."

Fisher has loved writing since he knew what a pencil was. From age five, he began writing poetry, and letters to celebrities. Donald Trump, who Fisher deeply admires and looks up to, was not only favorably mentioned in his book, but written dozens of letters over the years. Although he has never personally responded, he recently sent Fisher a polite "cease and desist" through his secretary, acknowledging Fisher's many contact attempts, and wishing him the best of luck with his book. Fisher framed the letter.

Fisher is a ball of energetic fire that rejection cannot extinguish. The only exonerees from his regular help-seeking and informative emails are individuals who take the time to respond. Fisher stated in a recent interview on Maryland's WJZ TV 13 that "he can accept no for an answer; however, no response at all is viewed by him as a potential possibility." Without a public relations firm behind him, or so much as a literary agent, he was able to persuade actor Lance Warlock of the movie Halloween II, to write the foreword to his book. Halloween is a classic horror film, written and directed by the legendary John Carpenter, and Debra Hill. In addition, he has regular contact via phone, email, and Internet instant message with New York Times best-selling author Omar Tyree, who has told Fisher he would grant consideration to writing the foreword to his next book.

I Ain't Bitin' My Tongue is one of the most unconventional books of its genre. Although pregnant with truth and delivering vital points, it manages to remain absolutely hilarious all throughout. Fisher delves deep into his personal life, and begins his prescriptions for greater levels of personal fulfillment with an open invitation through the time capsule of his existence. He truly did not "bite his tongue." The award winning poetry of Fisher can also be found in his book. Through it, he takes readers further along a journey of learning experiences and triumph.

Fisher's book is available worldwide at your local bookstore, or by visiting amazon.com, walmart.com, books-a-million.com, borders.com and target.com. The ISBN (international standard book number) is 1420874586. He loves reader feedback, and can be emailed anytime at: BooksByValdez@aol.com.
