February 21

Andre S. Jones was shot to death at Jusgos deli on the West side, and an unid'd man was found dead in the 1500 block of N. Bradford St.
Gus says they're 40 and 41, so who was 39?

Evil Carolyn Redd, 41, and Lawrence Gee, 33, were arrested Tuesday and charged with first-degree murder in the death of Redd's mother, 63-year-old Mary Page. Fox reported that Gee also raped Page.

More on Thomas D. Morten, who stabbed Donald Henderson "through 'every vital organ you can think of '" and "so hard that the tip of the knife broke off in the man's skull."

The Sun reports on the Clay Court apartments, a former open-air drug market where two men were murdered within 24 hours.

Forestville dentist Derek Curtis, 63, was sentenced to more than five years in prison for distributing cocaine and painkillers from his office.

A Cecil County grand jury indicted Loren Jennifer Love, 26, for assaulting a 75-year-old man inside his Conowingo home and giving him a "kiss of death" before stealing his pickup.

James Douglas allegedly tried to rob a Frederick liquor store and instead allegedly burned to death.

An off-duty cop working security at a Wachovia branch in the Northeast shot a wannabe bank robber.

Carroll County won't reduce the bail for Randy Humple, who allegedly shot a 17-year-old girl who was napping then ran away and hid.

WJZ reports that police shot a man in the 2100 block of Broadway in Fells Point, and the man then ran into a McDonalds. Interestingly, that address would place the man, the police, and the McDonalds smack in the middle of the Inner Harbor. Perhaps the editors at WJZ decided that a Fells Point shooting is more interesting than a South Clifton Park / Darley Park / East Baltimore Midway shooting. (Looks like they fixed their mistake. Hooray!)

Three teenagers were hit in a drive-by shooting in Annapolis

A plethora of well-read hoodlums in Harford County.

Rajah the poodle is dead, and his groomer claims, "He bite me. He’s not behaving very well and there’s no excuse for that."

Has anyone else been following the story about the trainee firefighter who was killed a couple of weeks ago? Apparently the BCFD higher-ups are just as incompetent as the BPD's leadership.

Broadway at harforf road... it ends with the 2000 block and turns into Bonaparte.... the McDonald's is on the 2000 block directly behind the Harford rd and North ave courthouse and the department of social services....

2100 south would be the middle of the harbor, but 2100 north is actually Bonaparte ave which is what broadway merges into.

the 2000 block of north broadway always smells like shit. or at least it did before it got too cold for anything to smell. it smelled like that even before they started tearing up the sewers over there (maybe that's the reason they're tearing up the sewers?).

so the sun just updated with an article about two more murders, and in the article they say that the total is now 41, but my total is only 40, and i'm including the body that was found in brooklyn the other day, which might not officially be a homicide yet. so the sun has failed to report at least one, possibly two murders recently.

One of the men murdered at the 27th Street halfway house was Gregory Cane's first cousin. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/local/bal-md.kane21feb21,0,7676811.column?coll=bal-home-columnists

Gregory Kane wrote a good commentary on it all here.
