June 19

Moments before his scheduled murder trial was to begin today, Tyree White, 24, of the 3000 block of Grantley Avenue, pled guilty to second-degree murder for the death of Trayvon Granger in 2005. Judge John M. Glynn sentenced White to 20 years in prison. A co-defendant, Anthony Eubanks, also known as William Cohen, 21, of the 4100 block of Park Heights Avenue, pled guilty to conspiracy to commit murder. Judge Glynn sentenced Eubanks to five years in prison. Details:
On August 17, 2005 at 1:30 a.m. at the intersection of Pall Mall Rd and Loyola Southway the victim, Trayvon Granger and a friend were walking when the victim saw his first cousin Anthony Eubanks and Tyree White. Granger began speaking to the defendants and the friend got nervous and started to walk away when he heard Granger say, “man, what are you doing?!” Friend then saw White and Eubanks chasing Granger with White firing at, and hitting, him. Investigation revealed the shooting was over $1,500 worth of drug money.
Assistant State’s Attorney Lisa Phelps of the Homicide Division prosecuted the case.

An unidentified man was fatally shot in the street in the 2900 block of Miles Avenue at West 29th Street in Remington (less than 1/3 of a mile from where a cab driver was shot earlier this month).

On Sunday, a body was found in Gwynns Falls Park.
"Also yesterday, police released the names of two men killed over the weekend. Alvis Harris, 40, of the 1200 block of Cherry Hill Road was selling Father's Day baskets outside a bar in the 3300 block of Annapolis Road about 1:30 a.m. Saturday when he was attacked by four men. Harris sustained multiple injuries and was taken by ambulance to Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where he died about 1:30 p.m. Saturday."
and
"Marcarian Grimes, 23, of the 2600 block of Fairview Ave. was outside his apartment about 2 a.m. Sunday when he was forced inside by two gunmen who demanded cash. One of the men shot Grimes before both fled, police said."

An unidentified man was fatally shot at about 9:30 last night in the 3400 block of St. Ambrose Ave. in Pimlico.

In the county, Tyrone Lawrence Mosley, 28, was arrested, passed out, taken to the hospital and then charged with the death of his girlfriend's 7-month-old daughter, Isabella Nacola Bland, in April of last year. In case you were trying to remember that "stepparent" stat it's children under the age of two are at least one hundred times more likely to be killed a stepparent than a biological parent.

In Frederick, the mysterious case of missing Deysi Benitez and her dead husband and children is still a puzzle. The local paper published details of the autopsy reports, including that father Pedro Rodriguez had scratches and bruises.

Olesker on Dixon's cop-love; Sun informs, "City's coordination in fighting crime is called into question"

Blotter: A man was shot in the hand in Parkville, a Durango was set ablaze in the Southern, the Towson Comfort Inn was robbed, a woman in Woodlawn was choked for her purse.

Navid Eghterafi Nanaf Abadi was planning to drive to Ocean City and kill himself and his children, but police in MoCo convinced him to pull over. (!!)

There have been rumors for years that the BPD has a civilian review board. Whaddayaknow, it really exists!

UPDATE: Wow, for the first time ever, someone at JZ sobered up and corrected the copy! ... so make your guess below before you click the story link!

... and Ed Norris (who can't run for Mayor) proposed his own seven-point crime plan last night.






What Ed Norris Actually Said to JZ was ...

According to the Sun there was a fatal shooting on the 3400 block of St. Ambrose Ave. in Pimlico last night. A decomposing body was also found in Gwynns Falls Park on Sunday. Also, the man killed on Annapolis road was Alvis Harris, 40 and the guy on Fairview Ave. was Marcarian Grimes, 23.

My nomination for best JZ typo ever goes to "A foot chase ensued after the officer pursued the suspect, who was on a mopehead."

There was a fatal shooting in Remington last night. 29th and Miles.

Hmm, according to this blog's murder numbers the shooting in Remington takes us up to 150 murders for the year, and there are still 11 days left in June. I can't believe that Sheila Dixon is still spouting lies about how crime is down.

DurhamSt said...

But, crime reporting is down.

Maurice Bradbury said...

A mopehead, oh yes, that was a classic...
Thanks for the link, Dopple.

Re. the Remington story:
If they say it's 149, there's some "body" we don't know about.
and there is no way that article was up at 10:13 a.m!

Dopple said...

The sun article claims the Remington body is 146.

Maurice Bradbury said...

I'm sorry, 146. In any case, it's one off.

John Galt said...

I'm really losing any iota of respect I ever felt for Sheila D.

In response to Ed Norris's plan for reducing violent crime, she says "Me too. What he said."

Yeah, only difference, hon, is that he means it. You're just posing. Goodbye, Mdme. Mayor. You're toast.

Norris is against violent crime first, against nonviolent crime second. Dixon's pro-nonviolent criminal. She's gotta go.

John Galt said...

Now, let's see. The City has a pension crisis looming and we don't pay enough to cops who choose to work here, but O'Malley's henchman Marcus Brown is gonna get free benefits because Leonard Hamm lied to the pension board about his eligibility. Hmmm. Cannot Hamm therefore be fired? I believe that constitutes grounds for his removal for cause under the Public Local Laws authorizing his position.

John Galt said...

to wit,

Public Local Laws § 16-6(e)

Removal for cause.
The Police Commissioner is subject to removal by the Mayor for official misconduct,
malfeasance, inefficiency or incompetency, including prolonged illness, in the manner provided
by law in the case of civil officers.

Check out the button to 'Mayor Dixon's Illegal Gun Stategy'

point #1: For a self-avowed education mayor, she can't even spell the word.

point #2: Her strategy may well be ill-advised, but I wouldn't call it illegal.

Four people were injured by a gunman on the 1500 block of N. Patterson Park Avenue last night.

Regarding the Remington homicide:

The young man's name was Ronnie, I knew him, he actually lived at the corner of my block until recently when his apartment was firebombed. He was s nivr huy from what I knew of him and what people have been saying, but who knows what trouble he may have had.

Gor said...

Lil sis, I'm embrassed to ask this, but what is "s nivr huy"?

Unknown said...

sorry a nice guy is what i meant to type... too much on my mind to spell check myself, sorry lol.

Gor said...

Thank god that is what it was! I thought it was some new slang this old man ain't up to date with or a form of vietnaglish.
