Anyone that has a scanner will probably agree with me that there has been a huge increase of felony crimes in Calvert County. I listen to a scanner 24/7, as I grew up with one. My father was a P.G. County police officer, and my Father-in-Law is, a retired Captain in the State Police but hold other positions in the State Police right now which is not a road trooper. So both my husband and I grew up with scanners in our homes it is like white noise, except for over the past year or year and a half, it has become very alarming and to close to home for me and my family.
First I want to mention the need for Paid Medics and Firefighters!
This county is the fastest growing county in the state, with many more jobs opening @ the Power Plant. We need a better hospital that has specialists available, or even out-patient specialists period. We desperately need paid first responders, Medics and Firefighters. I heard from a Medic that the only reason that they are still volunteers, which they are short of Medic volunteers, is because the commissioners do not want to pay the insurance required if the Fireman and Medics were paid a salary. Give me a break. I have listened to many delays when someone is stroking out, or having a heart attack, due to "No Medic Available" for the longest time now. It is not the Volunteers fault, they have full-time jobs, and they kindly volunteer their free time to help the citizens in Calvert County. I say they need to be paid. Every time we have needed medical help, they have been to our door within minutes, but that is not everyone that needs their help. We have been lucky. I praise them for volunteering their free time and for how quickly they have been to our aid. There are many instances where a person is having a heart attack for example, and 10 to 15 minutes later the dispatcher is still looking for a Medic. It is ridiculous.
On the other side of 911 is calling for aid from the Police Dept. Good luck if one arrives @ your home. This is a true scenario. I was privy to the happenings of an incident where an underage boy was riding his bicycle without a bell on it when some of the Sheriffs pulled over and yanked him off of his bicycle by his hair and pant crotch. I was even in the courtroom to see what happened, and this boy was tried at court for not having a bell on his bike!! This is taxpaying dollars folks.
Here is what I get for taxpaying dollars from the Sheriff Dept. About 8 to 9 months ago, my home was fired at around 1:30am, by known crackheads that I saw casing my house three times,earlier in the same day. Most likely to intimidate me with the intent to invade my home and rob me of my prescriptions that I need to survive. After putting my youngest child in a safer place in the home, I called 911 and I was hysterical. When a Sheriff finally arrived, there was only one sheriff. He was patronizing as I was trying to describe the vehicle that was casing my home earlier, and the sheriff stated with a smirk on his face, "If you would quit talking maybe I could look for them". If I quit talking he would not have had a description of the perpetrators. But, I complied so he could go out and do his job believing that there would be a follow up. I thought that the Sheriff would return with anything, questions, a body for me to identify, a car for me to identify, anything, but we never saw or heard from them again. I had to call the Head Sheriff of Calvert County, Mike Evans to find out why nobody followed up or returned to the scene of my house being shot at. Let me make this clear, there were no Criminal Investigation Division Sheriffs at my home nor was any type of an investigation performed at all, and no report even written by the one Sheriff that did show up for our call for help. My little boy was traumatized over this. I am still fuming from this one incident as my child, living in a upper middle class neighborhood has to be now subjected to avoiding windows, not answering the door if someone knocks,(he becomes petrified if someone knocks on the door), he has to witness his parents having to carry guns around inside of our home, ready to return fire, and my child should not have to live this way. We did not purchase a 6 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 3 rec rooms/living room home on an acre in the woods to be victims of junkies/crackheads who will stop at nothing to enter a home and kill a family. I called the Head Sheriff, Mike Evans about this event and other events that have happened by criminals and because I have been the victim of harrassment by a handful of the Sheriffs on his department. At first Mr. Evans was talking neutral but then he busts out into a statement that makes me feel that because I have been chronically ill and now dying, for over a decade, I am to blame for my home being shot at because I have to take pain medications. What the Sheriff asked me was, "Come on, my name, Don't you think it is about your dope/or/pills?" Well, yes I do. I am trying to protect my family from theives that want access to my medications but it is my fault in his eyes.
Am I to blame if my home is shot @ by a car full of crack heads that are driving around looking for a place to rob in their dealers burgundy cadillac? This vehicle and dealer is a known person to anyone and the Sheriffs Department but they do nothing to arrest this woman. She owns a home cleaning service, and while she is supposed to be cleaning her clients homes, instead, her crack heads are doing the cleaning,(probably cleaning up their valuables), while she cuts up or makes her crack in her clients homes. This is also a known fact by many people. So why am I to blame if I've had to take pain medications that have been prescribed to me legally, so I can have a little bit of quality of life? This is not quality of life when a family has to carry guns with them from room to room. When I called 911 the night that there was gunfire at my home, the minimal response I would had expected would had been CID doing an investigation.
