Wednesday, July 29, 2009

Charges are dropped against a Calvert Hall student initally charged with assualting a Baltimore police officer during a car stop.

iv1 said...: Not when it comes to charges involving police, at least from my experience. I do agree that the city has the highest RWC's in the country, but if the charges involve entanglement with police officers they generally stick. For ex, I wrote about a guy Fenyanga Muhammed (not sure on sp.) and he was shot four times in the back during a drug stop. Turns out he didn't have any drugs, but he's still facing second degree assualt charges even though he can barely walk because a bullet is lodged in his spine. But you do make a correct point about the city drops charges all the time.; Wed Jul 29, 09:37:00 AM EDT

Maybe it was mentioned in a different article, but juvenile suspects are usually not identified.; Wed Jul 29, 11:07:00 AM EDT
