Navy Offering Reward for Information on Bomb Threats

Earlier this week, the Naval base in San Diego received a phone call that specifically threatened one of the buildings on the base. Around 9:15am, someone called in and threatened to bomb Building 36. Around 9:15am, the base posted on its Facebook page that the area had been secured, meaning they did not find evidence of bomb(s). There was a perimeter set up between Pier 3 and Pier 5. This is the second threat at Naval Base San Diego within two weeks. Previously, a hand-written note sparked an investigation and the evacuation of the pier at 32nd Street and Harbor Drive. The base is currently not on lockdown. Now the Navy is offering a $5,000 reward for any information leading to the arrest of the person who made the fake bomb threat. A spokesperson for the Navy stated that since last November, 11 fake bomb threats have been made. Continue reading

What are the Maryland Rules of the Road – Right of Way Laws? When considering liability in an accident case in Maryland, our injury lawyers reference the Maryland Transportation Articles and the Rules of the Road to determine who was “at fault” in an accident. One of the most useful sections of the Transportation Articles is the Rules of the Road – Right of Way, contained in Maryland Transportation Article 21-401 through 21-405. If you’ve been hurt in an accident in Maryland, contact the Randolph Rice injury lawyers as 410.288.2900 for immediate legal help. Vehicles at Intersections Maryland TRansportation Code Annotated §21-401 § 21-401.

Fair Weather Federalism and the Blue Lives Matter Act

Ilya Somin has this post with the above title at the Volokh Conspiracy on the WaPo site.H.R. 4760, the Blue Lives Matter Act of 2016," is a sweeping bill to make assaults on police officers a federal offense, adding to the list of federal "hate crimes."Of course it is true that blue lives matter.  It is also true that the police are under attack and need the support of the law-abiding people of this country.  It is also true that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.Crimes against persons are generally matters of state law.  At times it has been necessary to stretch the boundaries of federal jurisdiction when states were failing in their constitutional obligation to provide equal protection of the laws, such as the murders of civil rights workers over half a century ago.  Those dark times are long behind us.  State governments are perfectly capable of prosecuting crimes against police officers.  Federalizing the issue will…

After 20 Years in Prison, Bronx Man’s Murder Conviction Finally Vacated

The Bronx District Attorney’s office has approved the release of a local man who spent 20 years behind bars for a murder he and his lawyers say he didn’t commit—a move that only adds to the growing list of convictions recently rejected by New York City prosecutors. On Tuesday morning, applause reportedly filled the courtroom at the Bronx Supreme Court as Justice Robert Torres announced his decision to release Richard Rosario from custody. Rosario has been in prison since 1996 for the murder of Bronx resident George Collazo despite the fact that he has long maintained he was “1,000 miles away in Florida” the day the crime was committed, according to NBC’s Dateline. The decision to release Rosario from custody follows Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark’s conclusion that the defendant “had not received a fair trial and should be set free” and comes just days after a Brooklyn judge reversed the murder conviction of…

Criminal charges can be stressful, bringing a lot of uncertainty to your life.  There are a number of things that you should not do if you have been charged with a crime or you believe you will be charged with a crime. You Don’t Have to Talk to the Police One of the biggest mistakes we see clients make when they have been charged with a crime of they are about to be charged with a crime is speak with the police.  You don’t have to talk to the police. They may seem like they’re your friend and they can help you, but they are looking to build a bigger and better case against you.  They want you to admit that you did something and sometimes, they may want you to admit that you did something that you did not do. So, don’t talk to the police unless you have a consulted with a lawyer or you have a lawyer in the room while you speak with the police. Don’t Contact the Witnesses Don’t try to fix things after you have committed a crime.…

Valentina Pop reports for the WSJ:A United Nations court sentenced former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic to 40 years in prison for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes during the Bosnian war in the 1990s. He will appeal the ruling.The International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia on Thursday found Mr. Karadzic guilty of 10 out of the 11 counts, including genocide for the Srebrenica massacre and criminal responsibility for the shelling of Sarajevo, during a nearly four-year siege on the city. He is the highest-ranking official the court has convicted since its establishment in 1993. Forty years is a life sentence, given that Karadzic is 70, but it's not enough for genocide.
