Delegate Jill P Carter to her FB peeps: "HB 429 that would enable downtown bars to remain open until 4 a.m., Fri-Sun, has been Withdrawn. Opposition at this morning's delegation meeting was overwhelming! ................I'm totally in favor of the medical marijuana bill."

Horrors, mysteries, misdeameanors
A man dead after a triple shooting in Sandtown-Winchester, 1542 N. Fulton Ave.
Also a man shot in the chest this morning at Stonewood and Northwood Rds.
Remember the three children murdered in Fallston? The father and brother of the convicted killers, Victor Espinoza, was killed in Mexico by his wife. Will she now be able to shed some light on what happened? (Unfortunately all of the Sun's story links are now non-functional, but here's some backstory from the Post.)
Duuuude. Testimony on the medical marijuana bill scheduled for today. Also under consideration: a bill to keep bars open until 4 a.m. Passed: a bill to ban BPA from baby bottles and sippy cups.
Plus, bitching homophobes & lauding lesbians
Also, the "Senate has approved legislation to ban strip searches for most misdemeanor or traffic offenses." Most?
The world's best-named strip club, Chubbies, has been shut down for a year; their lawyer says the penalty excessively hefty

What a day.
More on the tragic murder of security guard James Ball
Mother of Javon Thompson testified she starved him to death to rid him of a demon, and a former cult member testifies the group had her committed to a mental hospital hide the killing.
A guilty plea in the murder of 18-year-old Steven Parrish in 2008-- he was allegedly killed by a fellow Blood for sending text messages "that were gay in nature."
A win for Doug Gansler: the Supreme Court re-instated a Maryland man’s child sexual abuse conviction, holding that police need wait only 14 days to re-interrogate a suspect who is released from custody after invoking his right to counsel.
Butterfingers! A prisoner mistakenly released. Raymond Taylor, 26, was serving life for shooting a woman and her daughters.
The police commissioner asked the liquor board to shut down the Velvet Rope club after mayhem erupted there last night
The mysterious murder of a teacher at the Cheltenham Youth Facility
... and speaking of youth, Kristyn Breeds, a 29-year-old teacher in the 'Deener, admitted to sleeping with a 17-year-old student and received probation.

Plastered & Fossilized
Fredneck man found dead in an alley, drunk friends questioned.
...AG Doug Gansler writes a letter to MoCo Senator saying he thinks that the Court of Appeals could rule to recognize same-sex marriages from other states. His sentiments don't carry any weight-- there's no case in front of the court about out-of-state marriages, and at last visit the court was pretty clear that marriage exists expressly for "the attendant link to fostering procreation." (sorry, grandma!) Perry v. Schwarzenegger has a better shot with the Supreme Court than any hypothetical gay suit would with our fossilized bench.
Speaking out for civil rights is always nice, though, right?

Wrongedy Wrong Wrong!
This is an outrage!
It's our judiciary-- we pay for it!
But
a new rule, reportedly likely to pass, would allow courthouses to ban all cell phones and cell communications, and possibly laptops.
[wonder what this bill is called?]
Mark my words-- cell-phone blocking technology in the courthouse is next!

Lawyers, Lasers, Cell-Phone Jammers
QTD: "I ... have a great contract. Bless the lawyers." - FHB III
Cell-phone jamming technology will be tested today at Cumberland. The Senate passed the Safe Prisons Communication Act in October and is likely to pass the House; the bill requires that blocking technology not interfere with communications outside of the prison. More on the debate here, and info on how cell phone jamming works
"New Lasers Fight Crime, Martians"
And behold: the Ink with no murders.
