When this happens in Salisbury, one tends to interpret the death as from "Natural Causes".
ReplyDeleteTwo blocks over you have Salisbury's new community center?! What a fu*"ing joke Salisbury city government is. Spend all your resources on SU liberal arts social agenda and the hell with safety and well being of the city as a whole. If you haven't noticed wicomico county sheriff's office polices the city more than city police
ReplyDeleteWell at least he didn't get beaten, or murdered, cuz our Mayor and Police Chief said Salisbury is a very crime free place to live.
ReplyDeleteOur Local Maryland Delegate RINO's Carl Anderton, Jr., Chris Adams, Mary Beth Corroza and Johnny Mautz voted for House Bill 1302 with the Sharee Sample-Hughes and the Democrats to take more of our Second Amendment 2A rights away from us.

-SPD
prayers for the families involved. and hoping they catch the awful person behind this :(
ReplyDeletewhat about a possible second homicide on west rd area also saturday
ReplyDeleteIt's so bad in Sby that the SPD should have their own homicide unit instead of pawning the investigation off on the state police for tax payers other then from Sby to pay for. The state police homicide unit is for small municipalities and all who hardly ever have murders so it's not logical to have a dedicated homicide unit.
ReplyDeleteGet rid of section 8 housing and the crime will drop drastically.

BULLSHIT!
Salisbury only started handling murders when they woke up one day and realized they didn't have any seasoned veterans with experience any longer.
Butt, Butt, Butt crime is down in da 'Bury. Ax Jake Day and Jim Ireton.
ReplyDeleteSPD used to handle homicides until Duncan came to town. No faith in her own staff?
