Three weeks ago Croyder wrote about another John, John Miller: "Jessamy['s] attorneys clearly don’t have the records that they need, and they lack the training to recognize and properly handle threats ... This is something Jessamy could have fixed years ago and still hasn’t. Yet soon she will be running around Annapolis telling the 2010 General Assembly all the things she could do with more criminal laws."
...Jessamy was appointed (by Glendening I guess) to the Office of the State's Attorney in 1995 and has won three elections.
Fifteen years ago! And no one has ever mounted a credible threat against her for that office, ever!
Amazeballs!

MJB: My understanding is that the State's Attorney is appointed by the Governor if the office becomes vacant in the middle of the term. I assume that Jessamy was appointed by Parris Glendening because she was Stewart Simms's deputy when he let office.
Here is Croyder's other article on nonexistent consequences to being on probation in Baltimore City. It's disturbingly important reading for followers of this blog.
Oh, and these stakeholders are really going to lead a change in how the City handles Safety ????
Now this is novel. Robbing a liquor store before the merchandise even makes it into the door.
With hoodlums allowed to hang in front of stores in Baltimore as they are, I'm actually surprised more delivery personnel aren't jacked.
Oh, and how many of you saw this article on a controlled experiment in crime.
It would be nice to be able to respond to the debate surrounding the redistributive effect of policing.
I'd caution readers to bear in mind w.r.t. the Minneapolis statistic that the crime is correlated with particular groups of persons, as well as their locations. So, Cops on Dots could be wrong. It might actually be Cops on Perps which results in the desired effect.
Page Croyder? Seriously? I know she likes to pretend whe was dumped out of the State's Attorney's office becuase she was so great and they were so bad but the truth is she is an idiot. How she parlayed getting dumped into some kind of armchair quarterback for the the crime problem in Baltimore amazes me.
But is she right??
If the judge actually DID those things, it's a good story.
"Page Croyder? Seriously? I know she likes to pretend whe was dumped out of the State's Attorney's office becuase she was so great and they were so bad but the truth is she is an idiot."
Got any specific facts to substantiate those accusations? Croyder does come off as a disgruntled former employee (sort of like Mark Steiner!), but she does have a lot of concrete examples of stupidity by the leadership @ the State's Attorney's Office.
