May 31

Fascinating! FBI agents have searched the home of MD Senate Budget Committee Chair Ulysses Currie.

"Three people were shot, including one by police, during a spate of unrelated violence late Thursday and early yesterday in the northeastern and downtown areas"

Broadwater reports that new charges were filed last week against Brandon Grimes; the alleged cop-killer also allegedly assaulted a jail employee. And he also allegedly has a girlfriend-- how depressing is it to hear that if you're a single guy ISO love!

Do I detect cynicism, Ms. Linskey? "Christopher Shaw has avoided prosecution three times. In November, prosecutors dropped a drug-distribution case. Four years ago, they dropped a charge of murder; two years before that, it was an assault charge that was dropped. But this time, prosecutors say, it will be different."

Never a dull moment at Casa del Garmin: 17 years for Hollins Market hair-ron; jail for a crooked yearbook salesman; an MTA officer headed to the hoosegow for burning his own car. And, of course, the PDJ.

HarfCo is investigating the death of a jail inmate, 25-year-old Justin Eugene Bolden.

Pardon me? Didn't the BCPD just say that things like this are an anomaly in our precious and privileged Downtown ?

John---actually it was a spokesman for the Downtown Partnership, who gets paid to say those nice things. Of course, I'm sure the Police Department would agree with them.
But this stabbing actually was just a couple of blocks away from the Howard and Fayette Street brawl a 4pm, when a gang of girls attacked another girl, and some held her down while a courageous thugette stabbed her in the back. That's what came to my mind when I read about this poor law-abiding kid who got stabbed while taking the bus home: an anomaly?!

More bang-bang in SW.
