Illegal weapons for sale
Looks like you can buy illegal switchblade knives all over the city, police say they don't have time to deal with it.
177
Santos Villanueva, 25, was shot to death in the 4300 block of Loch Raven Blvd. at around 9 p.m. last night
A guy on a bike wearing a hoodie shot up a parked car near the Edmonson village shopping center; the occupant wasn't injured in spite of at least seven bullet holes.
Police are ISO this man who broke into Charlie Brown's bar to steal cash, booze and lottery tickets
Police are also ISO this man who stole a gold necklace from Marley Station Mall
North Baltimore Patch reported on their FB feed that yesterday "Baltimore PD told us the JFX was closed for an unfounded bomb threat. And that it had nothing to do with the missing prisoner."
Joseph Gasque, 39, got 119 months for crack dealing.
Five years for a 54-year-old(!) man who conspired to rob banks and pharmacies
Forty-one months for funny-money-passin' Robert Johnson, 33.
Peter Angelos and Occupy Baltimore agree on something! The Brew reports that the shady quasi-nonprofit sorta-government Baltimore Development Corp. appears to benefit developers over the good of the city, should be more transparent and needs to follow 'best practices' used in other cities. The saved developers $14.5 million in taxes last year. The Brew also reports that the B.O.E. approved $5.6 million in consulting contracts at a four-minute meeting yesterday.

Switch blades removed
The mayor has banned switch blades from Hollins Market, meanwhile the SA's office says they're illegal.
Running and walking
Two life sentences for a man convicted for the murder of Brian Meise in a Catonsville convenience store.
The JFX was closed down today as police tried to capture a short and tubby escaped fugitive, one Maury Figueroa, arrested for drug violations and driving without a license.
Profiling nightmares! One of Chef Gordon Ramsey's crew was out scouting b-roll locations and got pulled over in what he alleges was a case of racial profiling.
Way to go, neighborhood walker! A JHU student on crime patrol helped nab a suspicious man on the rooftop of a building on Guilford Ave, who turned out to be wanted for burglary.
A man was shot in Milford Mill
Mom of murder victim Tyra Trent begs for leads. Sigh.

Cellphones tracked, crackheads freed
In case you haven't heard, SRB is in, Belinda Conaway is out, voter turnout was a mind-bogglingly dismal 13 percent, and there are complaints about write-in voting being hampered and other improprieties in the 13th district, where Shannon Sneed was defeated by incumbent Warren Branch.
Demond Tyler, 36, has been arrested and charged with smothering his own grandmother to death. Shirley Tyler was 67.
Murder Ink covers last week's three homicides, including Richard Ford, shot in 1998 after reportedly driving off without paying for some crack.
Two men were shot during the course of a robbery in the Heritage Crossing Community
Changes to the penal code mean 1,900- 12,000 inmates serving time for crack-possession charges across the country, and scores here in MD, are now getting let out of jail.
Blotteratta: a man tried to rob the Hampden Rite Aid with scissors, a teenage girl punched unconscious at Patterson Park High School.
SCOTUS heard that warrantless GPS-tracking case yesterday, but apparently GPS tracking of vehicles is small beans compared to the more common (also warrantless) tracking of location by cell phone. (And, of course, the N.S.A. is already monitoring all of your email.)
What the?! Some nerve!! The state of MD is now charging $190 for timely access to public information!
Adam Meister sums up that "Another BDC is Possible" meetup/protest yesterday. Sounds like it got off track into unrelated issues (racism, unions) and M.J. Brodie showed up and came off well.

Knives for kids
282 knives were confiscated from city school kids in the past two years. Plus it's pretty easy to buy a switchblade in the city.

Scary times
WTF?! Fox files a FOIA request to try to uncover the shady development deals behind the $1.5 billion-dollar State Center project involving hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars, but developers refuse the request saying they can't afford to make copies of documents. And now, says Fox, the state itself is suing plaintiffs who are suing for violations of procurement law-- a SLAPP suit, in other words. Nutrageous! A judge is going to stop the insanity and demand transparency any minute now, right? More on the State Center project here.
A man was stabbed at 100 E. Redwood Street early this morning
A city police officer is in Shock Trauma after being dragged two blocks by a pickup truck
Here's a shocking factoid: at present the government-- FBI, DEA, and presumably state and local police as well-- can attach a GPS device on your car and track your movements without a warrant. Particularly disturbing considering the very recent history of state police spying on anti-Iraq-war demonstrators.
In media news, Sam Zell, the Sun's gnomish overlord, was potentially awarded large shovels-full of money by a bankruptcy judge. And the Daily Record has laid off three people, citing costs.
Ps. don't forget to vote today, if you haven't already...!

Back again...
The conviction of Erik Stoddard was affirmed by the Court of Appeals last week. Stoddard was convicted and then retried no fewer than three times before his final conviction for child abuse resulting in the death of a child in 2008.

What is it going to take?!
to get a standing independent review board in this town?!
In case you haven't heard, the report is out on thecriminally negligent "tragic perfect storm" that lead to the shooting deaths of Officer William H. Torbit Jr. and Select Lounge reveler Sean Gamble, and the stupidity within is mind-boggling. Highlights include:
- Torbit left his police identification in his trunk, went into the crowd alone, tried to get some drunk girls to quit hitting a car with their shoes and told Sean Gamble to "mind your own fucking business" when he tried to intervene, escalating the situation.
- many officers didn't let dispatchers know they were on the scene, so the chain of command couldn't be established. As the melee was going on, an officer radioed "That's an officer, he is one of us, stop shooting" and was ignored.
- officers shot into a crowd of people, exhibiting "poor marksmanship and undisciplined shooting."
- investigators didn't log photos of the crime scene.
- officers involved in the incident refused to testify, including Deputy Maj. Marc Partee, the commander on duty that night. If a civilian witness refuses to show up to testify, they get thrown in jail, but when it's an officer shooting someone, apparently they are within their rights to not even make an appearance.
- As we already knew, the police has for years gone against its own policies and failed to conduct "after-action" training reviews of police-involved shootings to prevent future incidents.
and, finally, two years ago Bealefeld justified not releasing the names of officers to the public because their own internal investigations are so thorough. "But the report found that in practice, the internal affairs unit defers to homicide detectives and waits until the criminal case is resolved — which can take months and in some cases more than a year, 'delay[ing] the Department's ability to determine what policies were violated or how it might improve its practices.'"
So what is it going to take to get an independent review board in this town?
So far this year we've had $1.2 million worth of extra tax dollars going to compensate victims of police malfeasance, how many citizens shot by police? 1, 2, 3.. a bunch. Also an officer dealing heroin out of the NW District Police Station, the towing scandal, 30 percent of rape cases being deemed "unfounded" ... what is it going to take?
Without demonstrable integrity, the police department loses its legitimacy. With no legitimate police force, people take the law into their own hands and refuse to cooperate, making community-based policing impossible. Citizens take the law into their own hands. If the mayor, Bealefeld and Robert Cherry are genuinely committed to a fair and responsive police force that holds protecting citizens as its top priority, they would welcome a standing independent review board, one with subpoena power and the ability to make recommendations. Seventeen out of 50 largest cities have this, including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Atlanta, Miami, San Diego and Pittsburgh. The fact that the mayor, chief of police and head of the police union support the BPD conducting its affairs in secrecy and answerable to no one is a spitwad on the cheek of every tax-paying citizen in this sorry burg.

Sleazy, sad and evil
Police have released video of the suspects wanted in the murder of Freddie Jones Jr. near the Yau Brothers on Monday. Lowell Melser reports that the robbery netted $13-- the exact same amount Charles Bowman was murdered for, which sounds a little too coincidental to be true.
Two shootings yesterday near Franklintown Blvd & Edmonson Ave
The Dept of Labor is suing Baltimore Behavioral Health for withholding financial records. A Sun investigation uncovered veritable assloads of shadiness at the supposed treatment clinic, including stolen retirement funds, Medicaid fraudsters on the payroll, and family members of the director pocketing six-figure salaries.
Judge Ben C. Clyburn has issued a “stay” on 3,878 debt collection cases brought by two companies whose business licenses have been suspended
After liberating Libya, Matthew VanDyke is now headed home to work on his memoirs
No bail for a woman arrested here and charged with running a prostitution ring in El Paso
A prisoner named Derontay walked away from a work detail in Glen Burnie yesterday, but was soon recaptured
Down in Bethesda, Brittany Norwood was found guilty of murdering co-worker Jayna Murray
A thoroughly depressing suspected grandson/grandma murder/suicide in Parkville
