afternoon update: a floater, a murderous transvestite and even more shootings

More shootings? Two new incidents in the county!
"Three men were wounded when gunfire broke out about 11:20 p.m. at a backyard cookout in the 7400 block of Lexham Court near Woodlawn" and "One man was wounded when two men approached him about 10:45 p.m. while he was on the porch of a house in the 1900 block of Mountain Ave. near Parkville."

Ew, a body was found a-floating by Rikki Spector's condo.

County police are looking for a transvestite who robbed the Budget Liquors and shot a customer.

A murder charge against some guy was reduced to a handgun violation, but the story is so confusing I don't have time to untangle the details- is Haskins the 22-year-old guy? So two guys confessed to the same murder? My head hurts.

Judge to Kevin Clark: "no"

Hey, Ed Norris has podcasts now! You can hear Ed call Marty Burns a "dumb bitch" at your leisure!

More subpoenas to Dixonites.

They have something here.

As the Grand Jury prepares to consider a case for indictment next week, the Examiner reports that prominent area defense attorney, Dwight Pettit called the probe, “unfair.”

"They’d be very, very hard-pressed to convict her in Baltimore City. A Baltimore jury will laugh them out of court.”

Yeah, and that's why she should be convicted (if evidence is sufficient): because a Baltimore jury is so reluctant to convict anyone of anything.

Baltimore: the Criminal City.
