Dents

Man & city officer bit by pit

Love this lede: "A rare drug bust in Harford County is putting a dent in Maryland's access to marijuana."

With the stabbing and the shooting and the testifying

Jury seated and trial underway in the Lamont Davis case

Skinny Suge's cohort and Tree Top Piru Antwoine Gross, 23, gets 12 years for racketeering conspiracy. Or in other words "Defendant Stabbed and Shot a Man Who was Later Murdered by other TTP Members for Testifying About the Stabbing and Shooting"

QTD: "Conaway apologized to each and every resident of Baltimore who has ever been called for jury duty."

Another mistakenly released con, this time in Baltimore County

18-year-old Gary Knight of the Pasadena Denver Lanes Bloods got 17 years in the federal pen for drug dealing and carjacking, his pal Antonio White got 22 years for racketeering, in addition to the 40 years for handgun possession and 2nd-degree murder he got from the city. Sadly, neither press release tells us what their gang nicknames were.

And 10 federal years for hair-ron for Adrian Aulton. Aulton was apparently a co-conspirator of "Jr" and 'Turkey," who were implicated in the 2007 torture and murder of Sintia Mesa.

Reluctant witnesses in the trial of Lamont Davis

Law clinic to lose funding over chicken-poop suit

Ha! Judge who married victim to abuser says he was driven by his "Catholic conscience," adding "he had not read the case file, his standard practice." A level of diligence and scrutiny the pope himself would endorse!

Arrest in the murder of transvestite Darren Green, aka Kelly Bundy ... shockingly, the alleged perp was out of the clink with a suspended sentence.

The high price of self-defense

There's one to tell the grandkids... first humongously fat Marvin Cook Jr. breaks into 68-year-old William Bozeman's house ... then after Bozeman shoots him, Cook falls on top of Bozeman and bleeds out all over his bed. (Natch, Cook's family says he was "set up by someone")
Small world: Cook once was charged with firing shots at police union head Mark Cherry.

Topically, "The Maryland Senate has endorsed a measure that would protect people from lawsuits if they use deadly force to defend themselves"

and speaking of fat people, AAC police are ISO a Heinie-drinking counterfeiter

Fenton on crime trends: everything's down but home invasions, "which are up considerably."
Now, that's interesting.. doesn't it seem like home invading would be a lot riskier and more effort for the perp than burgling, or robbing a business or pedestrian?

Right on! A major FBI raid of 30 business and 15 pawn stars. More from WJZ (Who buys their toiletries at a pawn shop?)

The Velvet Robe Nightclub is fined $3,500 by the Baltimore Liquor Board for the riot incident on February 25th.

Personally, I blame the potholes: Officers are accused of deliberately driving a Police van erratically while a suspect was handcuffed and secured in the back, which led to the suspect's death. A $100 million wrongful death suit against the BPD is currently in the city courts.
