February 16

Eugene Parker, 31, was arrested for the murder of Harold Robinson, a security guard at Club International.

District Judge Blake ordered Jermarl A. Jones held in custody, instead of allowing him to be released to a halfway house (customary soon after a heroin-dealing arrest, I gather)

kirsten ann kinleyPedophile of the day: Kirsten Ann Kinley of HoCo, left, who had sex with a 15-year-old and sent him "inappropriate" photos and text messages.
Runner up: Mark Bartles, who used peer-to-peer networking software to download and share images of child pornography with his peers. The FBI found him by his ISP.

Nathan R. Chapman, sentenced to seven and a half years in prison for defrauding the Maryland pension system of millions of dollars and stealing from his public companies, had his jail time reduced by a third by a federal judge Friday. Booo.

A couple of cocaine-filled guitars were found at BWI.
"Drugs and rock ’n’ roll have always gone together — but not quite like this." HAW!!

From last week's NYT: "The Needle and the Damage Done," about how grody lethal injection can be, and American discomfort with the Death Penalty. ("the twitching, the moaning, we can't even tolerate that.")

Now can we please fire Lenny Hamm ?

I don't get it - how can these cops (allegedly) be so bad at defending civil liberties, yet simultaneously be so bad at fighting crime?

Its like we're always 0/2 in this town.

Baltimore: Get out of it or get in jail.

I think it's because the public officials are so (allegedly) incompetent.

Anonymous said...

Nah, there's no allegedly to it for our public officials. We have undisputed written fact that they are incompetent.

They have time to push for statues of horses but can't get us a decent police force? Good to see our priorities are right here...

John Galt said...

Just so that we're quite clear about the priorities of new City Council President Stephanie Rawlingls-Blake...

UUUUCHHH!!
Way to revert the image of working women back by about 50 years! ... I don't know where to start. This woman is a disgrace to our gender. I could write essays, but this weekend I'm too busy actually working to make the world a better place while she's putting on makeup and shopping for trampy shoes.

NOT ALL FEMALES are shallow and accessory- obsessed, and those who are need to help the world by staying at the mall (and keeping the frat boys and insurance salesmen out of the dating pool). Leave the shit that matters to the rest of us!

What's more bothersome: That she went on the record saying such vile things, or the fact that she has political power here in Baltimore? I'll opt for the latter. That'll teach us to elect feeble-minded imbeciles.

Baltimore: Where Crime's got nothing on MAC makeup...

Well I was doing my weekly angry emails... this week Ms Rawlings-Blake and Ms Belinda Conaway got a piece. Who else wants some?!?

John Galt said...

How about Lenny Hamm and Public Safety Chair Jim Kraft ?


Two more murders and expect no more pizza in Waverly.

Unknown said...

Galt, i dont think my bandwidth could handle what i would like to say to Hamm, but hey, I was pissed after reading that 5 things article and about something in the neighborhood so they were my angry targets.

Let's all send Hamm angry emails and wait for the standard " we are looking into the matter" email response...

Couldn't we just hire trained circus animals and make out better, and cheaper?

John Galt said...

Trained? You're comparing them with vertebrates ??

I was thinking, like, amoeboid parasites.

And, yeah, I'll wait for the usual Matt Jablow "..we find nothing out of the ordinary in the conduct of our department or lack thereof..." Yeah, JaBLOW, that's the problem. It's become so very ordinary.


And, like I said, now that the pizza guys got held up with semiauto pistols, no more pizza in Waverly. No more walking to the supermarket, no more walking the dog after dark, no more sending your kids to the library,.... so the half of Waverly who should be in jail are ruling the streets and the rest of us are prisoners in our own homes as sun sets.


Great.

Sheila Dix on.

Sheila Dicks everyone.
