August 29

Thanks to a couple of detectives, Baltimore County police have charged Alphonso William Hill, 55, with six rapes that occurred between 1978 and 1989 along the Loch Raven Boulevard corridor. Investigators have also collected evidence from at least 20 other unsolved rapes that occurred in these areas that they suspect Hill of committing.

"Suspect in Roland Park attack [is] a man with a history of arrests for robbery and sexual assault" ... and makes you wonder why he wasn't, um, behind bars?

If the guy who is robbing you has a gun, you might not want to provoke him.

Glen Stewart, 17, was the former owner of the burning body found in a park just over the County line.

Kirsten Ann Kinley pleaded guilty yesterday ... to one count of third-degree sex offense for improper sexual conduct with a 15-year-old boy at her Columbia apartment. "She's very depressed," said Thomas Morrow, her Towson-based attorney.
Well, no shit: "She's lost her teaching career. She's facing the unenviable task of being a convicted felon and registering as a sexual offender for the rest of her life." Ah, hindsight.

Former Washington Police Chief Charles H. Ramsey, who was out of a job when a new administration came to town in January, is so hard up for work
he says he wants to be Baltimore's next police commissioner. However,
As a city council member, Fenty had often criticized Ramsey for not focusing enough on Washington's most troubled and crime-ridden neighborhoods, a sentiment echoed by some community leaders yesterday. Critics in the city's police union accused Ramsey of playing to the news media while undercutting rank-and-file officers, who they said are demoralized and leaving in droves.
Baltimore County's cost-cutting medical examinations of police officers -- in some cases, forcing them into early retirement -- are illegal, sayeth los Federales.

Some people use guns, but Joseph R. Lagana used WD-40 to carjack a Columbia man. He'll be doing nine years in the clink.

There's been a fatal double-shooting (double fatal shooting?) in AACo.

MD is either the richest state in the U.S. or its citizens are the most likely to inflate their income on census bureau forms.

Snay you posted right after i did, sorry!
I remember chuck saying he was bust today so I went ahead and did it, but you found more stuff than me, so I combined the two posts!

Where was Kirsten Kinley when we were in school? In my case she was in the 5th grade, probably getting felt up by mom's drunk boyfriend or somehow otherwise being damaged for life!

that park with the burning body is not "just over the county line," it's like a mile and a half up liberty road from the border, almost to the beltway.

Kirsten Ann Kinley has weird teeth.

From the article about Charles Ramsey:

""Baltimore seems like a good city with some pockets of crime - it reminds me a lot of D.C.," Ramsey said yesterday."

Heh, I think a crime ridden city with pockets of goodness (not a word, I know) would be a more accurate description.

Oh, great. Let's release them back into the City, thank you!

Exactly backwards. Ban them from being overconcentrated here.

dead guy in howard county = homicide.

this answers the question "who's harder to perform an autopsy on: guy who's been decomposing in the rain and heat for 5 days or guy who was set on fire?"

burgersub said...

between which years did those rapes occur again?! i forgot.

Oh, for fuck's sake... this is the Ramsay activists all know and hate from the years of tear gas and pepper spray cannons, and now he wants to move out to Mobtown? D.C. is a cakewalk compared to Baltimore. If he thinks he can get away with his 'totalitarian media whore' methodology here, he's crazier than I ever thought.
