Christian Guilty
in the murder of Jerryell Myesha Foster, reports Fox. Last week Christian took the stand and accused police of tampering with evidence. Friday, county ASA Rachel E. Karceski decried the defendant's "Lies! Lies! Lies!"

Two murders this weekend
Former county prosecutor Isaiah Dixon about to go on trial for carjacking (??)
Holy yikes! Glen Burnie woman allegedly awoke to the sight of this crackhead trying to strangle her
Speaking of prosecutors, last month SCOTUS threw out a $14 million award for an exonerated death row inmate, who published a very sobering op-ed in the NYT yesterday. (And yes, Harry F. Connick Sr. is Jr's dad, if Wikipedia is to be believed!)
Poignant! BaltCo's 14 court reporters to leave by this summer & be replaced by robots (aka remote-controlled digital recordings).
UFOs in Glen Burnie? Nazis at the mall? Fenton on the fascinating finds in the FBI's Baltimore files
And it's the last day of the 428th session of the general assembly, and Linskey & Bykowicz recap your winners & losers. Bite it, fracking!! And this just in, a state health care exchange.

Oh fer ef's sake! Dwight Taylor, 25, was shot to death while waiting to get a haircut at 200 W. Saratoga St -- 5 p.m. right there in the Central District, like two blocks from the Daily Record! Police Tweet that CitiWatch cameras caught the suspect, who is in custody.
It doesn't get much Baltimorier than this: search of Patapsco Park didn't find Phylicia Barnes, but did turn up a man's body.
In Fell's Point a man was stabbed after bumping into someone at the RoFo
County police are ISO a-hole Antonio Marquis Johnson, who broke into his ex-gf's house and assaulted her 3-year-old son
Unshockingly, the Sun is all for in-state tuition for illegal/undocumented immigrants. (Comment: "figure out a way to do something with people whoe brake laws. Its not difficult")

50?
Police Tweet "OVERNIGHT HOMICIDE: 4900 Blk Bowland Ave. (Northeast District), 1:20am, 31 year-old male stabbed in the chest" -- but now I can't find the report of the demise of the stabbing victim at Lexington & Paca... did I hallucinate that?
Judge Nance says the city's gun registry is unconstitutional
Alleged killer of David McGuinn asks for a delay, which was denied, but then the C of A ordered a stay
and Baltimore Spectator is podcasting from Patapsco State Park, where an on-the-ground search for clues in the Phylicia Barnes case is underway, even though police apparently have no specific tips
Op Ed: Drug courts are not the answer

FINALLY Felicia Pearson is out on bond
Downtown, Sian James took the stand and cried, more from the Daily Record
and why did Rep Donna Edwards (D-4th, down around PGC & MoCo) quote White Stripes lyrics on the House floor?

Yet another missing teenager! County police are ISO Chalese Jenelle Brown, 16, last seen in Parkville. (And flickr will apparently no longer let me post pictures to this blog, so until I find another hosting service I guess there will not be any)
Three people shot last night.
Eric Rich, 28, charged with attempted murder after allegedly dumping scalding water on old people he thought were stealing drugs
Final vote expected today on that parole-for-lifers bill.
It sounds like the evidence in the case of Lee Edward Stephens, alleged killer of correctional officer David McGuinn, meets MD's new standards for the death penalty .. but will he get it? (& if he does, what are the chances of some kind of protocol ever being worked out?)
PGC police fatally shot an ax-wielding man outside of a day care center.
Who owns your e-mail cloud?
Congrats to Justin Fenton and a couple of other people, up for a national Investigative Reporters and Editors, Inc award for the "City Rape Stats Questioned" story

Man murdered on Monday ID'd as Christopher Bullock, 24
Trial set to begin today for the killing of Detective Brian Stevenson. Update: trial started with Sian James' lawyer claiming that his client felt threatened. After he walked to the parking lot because his friend's girlfriend called him, incensed that he didn't respect her right to save a parking place by standing in it. Stupidity. Astounding.
Officers Chris Funk and Matthew Ryckman were cleared in the shooting of an unarmed police informant
Family of Haines Holloway-Lilliston, killed in a high-speed chase, are suing the city for $40 million
A three-hour hearing for a motion to dismiss the State Center lawsuit.
And the city is on the hook to pay for a new paint job for a resident's car

Feeling good? Had a great day? There's a cure for that...
Nick Madigan covers the murder trial of former used-car salesman Frederick A. Christian, accused of killing Jerryell Myesha Foster and dumping her body in the wiles of Virginia.
(.. I remember this case, and while a search of the archive turns up stories of a man found dead on a burning couch, a 5-year-old shot by a gun he found under the couch, a pissy drunk on the couch, knives stashed under the couch and a 16-month-old killed by a couch, can't find the archive.)
