Man, 59, 900 block of Valley Street near Latrobe Homes
Another man armed with a "knifelike weapon" shot by police! This guy was on Callow Avenue.
Gregg Bernstein is going to try another case-- this one = murder.
Prosecutors say they won't seek the death penalty* against the alleged killers of Cherrie Gammon. Why that would have even been on the table I'm not sure, was there a videotaped confession or DNA evidence?
What the fark? Three nine-year-olds and an eight-year-old were arrested at Morrell Park Elementary/Middle School and taken away in handcuffs. As IV posted, Keith Daniels interviewed the adorable little members of the Killer Hit Squad gang, one of whom allegedly held a kid's head underwater and threatened to drown him. "I didn't aggravate no one or assault no one," says little Mackenna, adding, "I was taught to hit somebody back when they hit me, so I did." More from the Sun

Perverts!!
A woman was sexually assaulted in the Pen Lucy neighborhood last night
Not Baltimore but... can you imagine having your job be to look at child pornography all day? Gah! I wonder what Julie Drake does to not go insane. Related: child sex offender George H. Jones Jr. was convicted Wednesday for attacking his 10-year-old stepdaughter.
The man shot by police on Cold Spring Lane was not wielding a knife, but a "knifelike object." He's been identified as Sheron Jackson, 21, and for the first time in years the BPD has identified the officer: Michael Gordon, 25.
Testimony has begun in the re-trial of the Johnson twins, accused of setting a pit bull terrier on fire.
A 15th suspect has pleaded guilty to fraud and identity theft charges in a scheme that stole credit card numbers from people who owed money to the Johns Hopkins School of Business. Here's a business question, who has to suck up that $880,000?
A decade in prison for a NJ guy who brought cocaine bricks to MD in a rental car.
Tweeted by Fenton: a court opinion defines "rough ride."
Yeah, I know I already blogged this story about the House passing a bill that will retroactively make the no-bid contracts for the $tate Center projects legal. But I am still pissed off so I'm posting it again.

Springtime, when a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of ...
rioting and stabbing the shit outta people! (Apologies to Tennyson) St Patrick's day weekend, young men and women flashmobbed, converging on Canton and the Harbor, carrying on a decades-long tradition of wilding in the streets as soon as weather permits. Imagine if they actually put all of those ranging teenage hormones to a purpose, protesting against the youth jail with Occupy and the Algebra project, perhaps! Singing songs and carrying signs!
#35, a man shot in the chest on Imla St.
And our favorite drunk-driving bongload-smoking Olympic medalist is reportedly trying to quietly unload his Harbor East condo for a million-and-something.

O'Malley says he would veto a medical marijuana bill*. .. why can't he just direct the state and local police to not enforce marijuana laws, a la "Maryland the Free State" during Prohibition? Could anyone's interests possibly be served by cancer patients sitting in jail? .. and could the federal law-enforcement $$ have anything to do with O'Malley's position...?
And what to make of O'Malley going against the very study his administration paid to have done and going ahead with building a new $70-$100 million kiddie jail? Yes, he can find the money to build jails but not to fix schools, y'all.

Fake genitals; fetus-murder charges dropped
A city officer who was dating a relative of a suspect in the Monae Turnage murder has been suspended.
Murder charges have been dropped against the NJ doctors who started an abortion in one state, finished it in another and stashed fetuses in the freezer.
Fake genitals were found on a guy arrested for indecent exposure at Anne Arundel Community College, begging the question, is it indecent exposure if what's exposed is plastic?
Speaking of make-believe genitals, the NYker is reporting that in Lawrence v. Texas, no sodomy ever actually took place; the most "deviant" thing police saw was "sexually explicit art on the walls, notably a pencil drawing of a naked James Dean with oversized genitals."
Finally, the "Atlantic Wire" says that the Sun says that wiretaps of "Snoop" (Felicia Pearson) reveal her to be, in real life, a nice person just looking for some "ew-we," wtvr the f that is.

Concealed Carry for Maryland?
A US District Court judge has ruled that Maryland's law on who can carry a concealed weapon is unconstitutional*.

SRB to Obama: Bmore Won't Enforce Your Immigration Laws
Baltimore joins with DC in refusing to enforce federal immigration laws locally. The Obama administration seemingly can't win -- it's deported more undocumented immigrants than any other and is trying to pilot a program here to prioritize violent criminals and leave otherwise law-abiding residents alone, yet both the rat wangers and the liberals are enraged, and the Mayor's order takes it a step beyond keeping ICE out of Central Booking: "No City department, agency, officer or employee shall discriminate against any resident of Baltimore City based on confirmed or suspected race, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, immigration status, and/or inability to speak English."

Parrish jury deliberating
A jury is deliberating the guilt of 15-year-old Jason Mattison's (alleged) killer Dante Parrish. Mattison, who wanted to be a medic, was kicked out of his mom and grandma's house because they thought he was gay. He was slashed to death at his great-aunt's house with a box cutter while she and her addict friends nodded off downstairs. Parrish admitted to police that he beat and gagged Mattison. I wonder if his mom, grandma or aunts have been in the courtroom...?
$70k Payout approved for dad stomped by cops while holding tot
The Board of Estimates approved a $70k settlement to a man and his toddler son who were roughed up." TDR and The Sun's Luke Broadwater reports that at issue were the events of Aug. 28, 2009 when two Baltimore police officers arrested Tyrode Gibbs Sr., who was sitting on the front steps of a vacant property along with his 2-year-old son, Tyrode Gibbs Jr. The vacant property had a "No Trespassing" sign posted, and the officers instructed Gibbs and his son to leave, but he said he was "seeking shelter from the rain," the documents say. ... The lawsuit alleged the officers beat Gibbs to the ground, kicking and stomping him while he was still holding his son in his arms. During the altercation, one of the officers struck the 2-year-old and sprayed mace on the elder Gibbs, the lawsuit alleged."
