He died nine hours later at Johns Hopkins Hospital, police said. The killings brought the city's homicide toll for the year to 251, compared with 252 at the same time in 2005..."
Lucille Thorn of Newark, Delaware is now in the custody of U.S Marshals in Baltimore after she "allegedly attempted to hire a man to kill her 83-year-old stepmother so she could get some of her late father's inheritance money."
A New Twist in the Redwood Trust Double-Murder Case
Four buildings doused with flammable liquid and torched in the Southwest.
I wonder what happened with this double shooting near eeb's mom's house? (What's that neighborhood called, anyway? Hamilton?)
Blotter: Guns, drugs and another burglary in Parkville, where former owner Muhammad R. Choudhry was shot.
They are the champions: An utterly nutty story abot HoCo neighbors whose seven-year feud has led to 13 criminal cases (so far).
"Scrub Me Mama With A Boogie Beat" and "All This and Rabbit Stew"? Greg Kane's English class = edutainment!

Heh. I’m not sure what happened with the shooting, but I do know that I’ve successfully avoided voice contact with her since the shooting occurred. I’m hoping that if I let more than a week go by, that some other bee in her bonnet will take precedence. Yes, Hamilton.
I propose a Gregory Kane challenge. One cheer for Gregory Kane for every column he writes that does not mention that he teaches a writing course at Johns Hopkins. Three cheers for every week he does not mention that he teaches a writing course at Johns Hopkins.
Or, perhaps, a Gregory Kane “I teach a writing course at Johns Hopkins” drinking game. This article would illicit two completely unrelated shots.
Wow. Gregory Kane just blew my mind. What a conclusion: Watch what you say or gang members and Black muslims will hurt you. Um...WTF?
i like how the sun tried to blame their lack or reportage of the murder of mr. hurley on the police, whereas the city paper was able to run some info on it today too, and i imagine their deadline for their weekly paper is much earlier than the sun's is for their daily paper. they did something similar a few weeks ago. they didn't blame the police that time, and i don't remember exactly which murder it was, but the timing of it made me think that some editor was like "oh shit! tomorrow's wednesday! quick, throw some stuff in there about that murder that happened a week ago that we never bothered printing anything about!"
