Little late for all that now isn't it???? I believe this is nothing more than lip service after mayor applied her strong-arm to Batts to get the violence under control.

Maybe between all of them collectively, they might have figured it out without a road map to follow, it's bad for business.

Too little too late. Desegregate Baltimore's management NOW! Skills and knowledge should be the criteria for hiring qualified people capable of MANAGING Baltimore (NOT skin color). My family still lives there and they deserve better.

Too little, too late. You must go and you might consider getting out of law enforcement.

He has lost respect of all police officers because he is nothing more than a politician. He sucked up to the Mayor and did not support the troops. Too late now butt kisser!
