Well, at least Princess Anne is getting a new prison so they won't need to be transported very far.

Grady has a history of getting into trouble and substance abuse. Nothing surprising here.

Looks like the Big-H strikes again.

I heard Tpr Chester was on scene, no wonder the bad guys were caught oh I wonder if his partner Det Workman was with him they are the best investigators wicomico county has.

Citizens chased the guys and really helped.

Your a chick with the hots for Workman, I remember that from a year and a half ago. Does daddy know.

Does it really matter who made the lock up? It is not about any indvidual Trooper, Detective, Officer, Deputy, it is about all the agencies involved working together for the arrest. I give credit to all involved and appreciate their hard work and dedication in keeping the community safe. No one agency can do it alone it is about working together!

Take notes SPD

This article does not indicate that the SPD had any involvement. Were they involved?

Demolish these guys! Time to take control.

WBI excludes SPD, probably for good reason.

Anonymous said...

8:06 YES, it does matter who makes the arrest because the dumba-- chiefy SPD has couldn't arrest his way out of paper bag. Just another example about how low that department has fallen over the past 10 years but then again, you probably don't even remember that, do you?

I SEE U said...

LMAO This is to funny!!!

I recall a trip to ECI some years ago.Tommy grady was locked up there at the time for burglary.He was in the medical treatment room recovering from an assualt.He had the crap beat out of him by another inmate over a card game for snack cakes.

Maybe one day they will put Grady behind bars for GOOD!!! This is not his first armed robbery... He robbed the Somerset Liquor store in Pocomoke several years ago... We need a three strikes law or something similiar here in MD.

Joe I just finished reading the DAILY SUB-PAR TIMES.Article on robbery said they had no names of the suspects. Par for them. GOOD WORK.

Yes the SPD was there in numbers.

So how many armed robberies has there been now this summer? 10, maybe 15 and out of all of those 1 has had an arrest made. Congrats on this arrest but its too much of a rarity to actually get arrested for crime on the shore. Why do you think there is so much of it? I'd bet that Salisbury has more cold-cases than some cities 3 and 4 times its size. But then again once you see how the local workforce here (doesnt) work, you understand why nothing gets done around here.

7:33 the reason "nothing gets done around here" is because you have pussys mascarading as police officers working for a worthless piece of sh!t chief of police who only cares about his supply of liquor.

Go around and watch the local cops (i.e. SPD) - most of these newer "officers" coming out of the acadamy look more suitable to be on the Best Buy Geek squad instead of the vice squad. These local 'gansta's' only need to give them the 'look' one time and the officers keep on going around the block. No proactive policing at all due to the chief simply not caring. Don't take my word for it - PLEASE don't take my word - just spend some time (as I have) talking to the officers on the street - especially off the record. You will be amazed.

On the other hand, the WBI (which SPD refuses to be part of) and the Sheriff's office will continue to bust criminal ass and protect us in the county. While its with some degree of satisfaction we can all have due to these arrests, its still another glowing example about the faults and problems with Wicomico Countyh law enforcement. But don't worry - our sissified, help-is-on-the-way mayor will fix everything, remember? NOTTTTTT.

Results are what you get when agencies work together cooperatively.

Chief Webster, are you listening?

Here's another part of the problem. Our courts. Tom Grady- starting in 1996 up to yesterday, he has had 8 criminal charges of robbery & burglary. In 2005 he was charged with Armed Robbery. He only served 18 mnth. Most cases were either NOLLE PROSEQUI or put on the stet docket. The 2005 armed robbery, case# 19K05007984- stet. This guy should have been in prisson.

Same goes for Nielson, check his record out....

Anonymous said...

They should do it like they used to and cut both of their hands off. At least they can't steal then.......

Anonymous said...

This crime is far too serious to ignore but they are drug addicts that were stealing to support their habbit. Perhaps instead of just locking them up we should have tried to get them the help they needed...

Know whut I mean? said...

both of those guys have had help, several times from what I understand, both inside and outside of jail. Maybe it is time to let them have the full consequences of their actions and stop blaming their disease.

Anonymous said...

Don't forget the guys who chased them and let the police know. Everyone worked together on this one.

Anonymous said...

both nielson and grady are drug using pieces of sh!t that the court keeps putting back on the street

I happen to know Tommy and he did do time for many of his crimes. I think the problem is that prisn does not shape model citizens it creates monsters! Once you have been down that path yourself, you can't imagine what you must go through just to survive one day. Stop judging and start wondering what we can do to stop repeat crminal behavior and teach a new lifestyle.
and at the one who said that both have had help in the past, you must not understand the state of addiction care offered tlo state prisoners...do some research, you may learn!
