August 31

A man was shot to death last night in the 2000 block of E. Fairmount Ave. in Butcher's Hill, and a quadruple shooting in the 3000 block of Normount Ct. left one 22-year-old man dead.

A man who was shot on Wednesday night in the 3100 block of Artaban Pl. died yesterday. The man was found in the yard of a house a few blocks away from where Constitutional Defender and All Around Great Guy Warren Brown lives with his crime-fighting swimming pool.

A decomposed body was found in the Jones Falls near the 3000 block of Falls Rd. and Chestnut Ave. in Hampden. The death has been ruled suspicious. (Thanks, Burger.)

Police aren't really saying much about the investigation of Karen Kamsch, a Pasadena teenager who disappeared in the '70s, except to say that there's nothing in the well.

A woman crossing Harford Rd. in Parkville was hit by a silver Saturn that continued driving south towards the city. The car contained two women and a baby.

"In fact, until recently, (Cherry Hill) went several months without a single murder, something that hadn't happened in decades."

More Molotov cocktails, this time in Abingdon.

A guard at the Somerset County jail allegedly sexually assaulted five female inmates.

Former Army Lt. Col. and current pedophile Steve Miller got five years in prison.

DJ Nelly Nell got convicted for drugs and might get a 40-year gig in prison.

Oops! Dale Clark, Sheila D.'s former campaign chairman who earned half-a-million-big-ones working for the city without a contract, forgot to file his tax returns.

An ex-employee of Bowman's Restaurant and Pub in Carney pleaded guilty to robbing his former employer, who happened to be located directly next door to the Baltimore County Fraternal Order of Police lodge.

Note to criminals: be careful with your E-ZPass.

Newsflash: some municipal services are essential when you are the nation's second-worst city; others are just handouts.

Running a city is about making hard choices well. And yes, of course that's two-tiered. Deal with it. And frankly, get ready fo lot more cutbacks in inessential services as the unfunded pension issue emerges. This from years and years of b#llsh!t municipal spending and little actual public service.

Sure wish the policymakers around here would stop being so stupid, but then again they do reflect their contituencies. Check out these Baltimore HSA results!

Stephanie Galling-Flake's comments about "hard-working" city employees made me laugh. Every non-police/fire service city government worker I have dealt with has been a fat, lazy & useless piece of shit. Hello parking enforcement workers, can you hear me? That's right, I'm talking about YOU!

Speaking of decomposed bodies, did they ever figure out what happened with that guy they found rotting away in an abandoned house a couple of months back?

Anyone remember the film 'Cooley High' ??

Well, the Detroit school system has a new approach to a growing problem: just start policing them young.

There was one that had a calendar and a porno magazine from about 1980 laying near it.
