Oh, and drones

Mueller admitted what BCrime readers have known for a year: drones b swarming. We even have our own model, the Raven, (surely) inspired by and tested over Baltimore, built in Simi Valley and deployed to Afghanistan,

Btch plz edition

Holstein, meet Rosenstein. Local farmer's market fixture South Mountain Creamery has had $62,000 of its assets seized for the crime of depositing cash into their bank account after said farmer's markets. The feds allege the creamery purposefully made smaller cash deposits to avoid triggering IRS reporting requirements so therefore they're entitled to seize SMC's butter. So now following the letter of the law is a crime? Why is this not an IRS/State of MD revenue issue?

NSA: You can't use our illegally collected data to exonerate a murder defendant, that would imperil national security! Related: Gawker has an interesting interview with the couple behind crypome.org. (Note last link is NSFW!)

Finally a picture of Raymond Grey, the police trainee who was shot in the head. Presumably the picture was taken prior to that.


A 49-year-old man was shot in the back and paralyzed on E. Chase St. yesterday.

In case you missed it, a pentuple shooting of three women and a guy in the 700 block of N. Kenwood on the east side. Family dispute? Drug business? Sneaker stepped on? Nobody's saying.

20-somethings in an old minivan robbed a woman of her iPhone and got a fine come-uppance.*


Murderous love triangle revealed in Rosedale (one Diop Fatiu and Tyvon McQueen, 'a man with whom she was romantically accused'). Pics plz Carrie Wells!

The sex offender registry is like a 13-year-old: once you're on it's not easy to get off.*

Friggin beer owed

That old calling card of drug dealers and Pasadena teenagers, the Moltov cocktail, is making a summertime comeback in the Northeast with 12 thrown since the end of April.

The Ink has details of murders 96-100 (but no updates)

Ooh boy, the jail corruption task force is setting to work,* we're going to see some right big changes real soon now y'all!

Who's calling Baltimore residents and asking what they think of SRB, Dixon and author Wes Moore*?

Irony alert: Congressional Committee NSA hearing lovefest ends with NSA boss Keith Alexander accidentally broadcasting his own private conversation regarding a "friggin beer."

Meanwhile Van Smith writes about how Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander is presiding over a FOIA lawsuit for the release of 49 legal documents in the Bradley Manning case. The military courts decided they don't have jurisdiction to decide, so it's on her.

Female corrections officers in male prisons*: sunshine spreaders, sex predators, underpaid underlings.
