I live on Holland Ave where the 3 women above were arrested. Everyone in the neighborhood wonders how they get away with so much traffic coming in an out of the house at all hours and the police are not interested. This is a pretty good street except for this one horrible horrible home. We have seen people coming out of her home with drugs in their hands, counting money etc...Some argruments about drugs. Hopefully they will lock them up when they go to court. Court date is not until 2/14/2011 for an arrest that was done in May 2010. Everytime they take her away she is dealing drugs as soon as she gets home. Everyone on this street knows.

4:44 - I'm sure it must be awful for you. I also live in a neihborhood that is full of drug activity, which the police say they don't have the manpower to deal with. Sadly, I'm not surprise it took almost 5 months to arrest these women on the warrants from back in May. Doesn't sound like they'd be hard to find, especially a 68 year old. Maybe the police finally caught them using their cellphones.

you have to build up PC so the defense attorneys won't get an automatic dismissal. Your say so and other's won't amount to diddly unless activity is observed and documented by law enforcement. Welcome to the Maryland carved out by our liberal friends.

I sympathize,neighbors like that are why I moved out into a rural area.If they rent,find out who the landlord is and pester them enough,they will put those people out and they will become someone elses problem.One of my friends has neighbors like that too and she spent a small fortune erecting a stockade fence and security lights but otherwise has to put up with them until they go to jail again.
