During a visit to Baltimore on Wednesday evening, Gov. Larry Hogan announced that he is directing Attorney General Brian Frosh to prosecute more violent crime cases in Baltimore City and asking Maryland State Police to execute more high-priority warrants for violent offenders.
Though Maryland's attorney general is independent of the governor, the attorney general's office may pursue cases at the direction or with the permission of the governor or lawmakers.
“I hereby direct you to independently investigate and prosecute criminal suits alleging violations of State criminal laws that relate to any of the following offenses in which any element of the crime occurs within Baltimore City: crimes of violence; crimes related to firearms; and organized crime," Hogan wrote in a letter to Frosh.

"ASKS" Do ur FN jobs.
ReplyDeleteYeah, right. It doesn't further his political agenda of gaining power and notoriety, so don't expect much from him.
ReplyDeleteHow is Frosh going to find the time or money when he is spending it on suing Trump?
ReplyDeleteThis IDIOT can't do his job now. You think he's going to follow directions now??
ReplyDeleteHogan said nothing about prosecuting these ILLEGAL criminals. Hogan knows he is a do nothing Governor and this is just a joke trying to persuade Marylanders he is attempting to be a Governor.
ReplyDeleteGetting rid of Maryland Justice Reinvestment Act would be a great start to solving the problem...the hug a thug attitude is getting people hurt/ killed...
ReplyDeleteI don't want any of our LE pursuing these thugs. The blacks of Baltimore proved they don't want police around when the savages defended the now DEAD Thank God! thug Freddie Gray and rioted. Now let them suffer the consequences. They deserve to like in a war zone. They are second class and uncivilized. They do not deserve police protection like the rest of us do who are grateful for our police.
