January 12

In Greenbelt, James Everett Flood III, 28, got life in prison. Flood was accused of kidnapping and killing Eric Hayes II, a police officer's son.

A shooting, arrests, and a man robbed the "7-Elevent" in the Sun blotter.

Brian Keith RoseBrian Keith Rose, left, is still on the lam, wanted for the carjacking/murder of 31-year-old Warren Fleming. The Sun reveals that Rose was previously charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder three years ago, when he was accused of trying to crash a vehicle head-on into a police car. Those charges were, however, dismissed.

The mean girl who stabbed 15-year-old Kanisha Neal outside of Blake High School in Rockville will be detained for five years as a juvenile.

On the Hill Cafe & Market on John and Mosher in Bolton Hill was robbed last night. Theives broke a door frame and removed the cash drawer. Jessica claims to have sucked it up as a part of Baltimore living but says George muttered something about how much safer things are in Boston.

Here's the lowdown according to Edward Ericson Jr. on the hearing at the War Memorial that went down on January 4. O'Malley gave a speech then left the hearing, pissing off the crowd. Jessamy blasted the police for arresting people without probable cause, noting that in August 408 drug cases fit under the "could not prove" category, and there were 845 loitering cases clogging up t he system. Leonard Hamm made everyone uncomfortable when he was asked to define the 5th amendment and got it wrong. Ralph Tyler, the "Ralph" from yesterday's meeting who is ostensibly acting in loco Mayoris this month, eventually prompted him. Close readers will note that in the handout distributed at the CJCC meeting a week later, the hilarious gaffe still was not corrected. Even funnier: yesterday, before this story was out or I'd even heard about the hearing, my cell phone went off in the middle of the CJCC meeting, playing "Push It". Then after some guy from the police department was like, "was that your ring tone?" and I said, "I plead the fifth!" HA!

Raymond...speaking of a reduction in crime, there's been no response as to why Greg Raymond, the drunk-driving lacrosse coach who skewered his friend's skull on a pole at the Guilford street exit ramp, has yet to be charged with manslaughter.

An editorial by Stephen Crockett in a Maine paper accuses Ehrlich of abusing power and points out that though certain news reporters "are Maryland residents, they cannot talk to their own state government by order of the crazed Republican Governor."

please notify all rapists and robbers that the UMB is cancelling thier student shuttle service. That means there will be a free-for-all on students leaving the university in the evening and night. Rape, murder, rob... whatever you would like to do. you know you wont be caught by the police (at least not until your 10 rape.. so you will have 9 freebies)

if anyone has suggestions on what to do about this please let me know. the admin could care less and the student assoc is more worried about MLK day activities

I love this site for its reporting. The Daily Record today reported about the CJCC meeting. The first part of the article mentioned how the time to fingerprint has been reduced to 40 minutes at Central Booking. It also mentioned that they now have fingerprint machines at the Districts so police can fingerprint violators of minor offenses (such as open container) who have no ID instead of arresting them.

The rest of the article, however, reviews the attendance record of all the high-profile officials. It's sad that they spend 15 paragraphs about people commenting about their own or others attendance records. While tangentially interesting about how personally involved high profile officials are, it certainly not as interesting as the report from this site. Thanks!

Thanks! While I was at the meeting, no one commented about anyone else's attendence (though the appalling lack of it is certainly worth noting).

what does an editorialist in Maine know about MD government? and why should we care?

Gee I dunno, constitutional principles that apply to every American citizen or some shit?

technically, if the place was broken into while no one was there they were burgled. If jessica or george were present, they were robbed. just so you know.

Just to let you know, Matt Stoffel's family did NOT want charges pressed against Greg Raymond and did everything they could to make sure that it didn't happen
