What to do about it?

Seems like the revolving door criminal coddling method isn't working. Lock em' up.

You ride around and you see nice neighborhoods. Confusing to the transplants.
I can see where you'd be confused. There's neighborhoods that you wouldn't travel to just off Great Mills road. For the most part a recent transplant wouldn't drive in those as there's no business' in them.

As a side note, I wouldn't recommend traveling into any of those between Pegg Road and Great Mills Rd.

I moved here in '93. At that time there were only 2 police patrol cars out in all of St. Marys county. How things have changed it 31 years!
Got here in spring of 93 myself. Lived in Columbia Commons my first year. Biggest crime encountered was a little girl stole our kitten and some Chief was a bit creepy talking to my girlfriend while in his bathrobe. Late 90s lived in Patuxent Homes for two years. Had some kids run up and over my 1987 model car.

Spending a year in either place now most likely not the same experience.

If I may ...
For your consideration ...

Not quite in-thread, but I just saw a vid where these guys have an electronic device which overrides a gas pump billing system. They pull up, use the device on a pump, and then steal hundreds of gallons of fuel into a huge gas storage tank in the back of their van. The pump display show nothing. They only way they are caught is a remote monitoring system sees lots of fuel being pumped, but no sales.




Dang. That's over a ton of gas in that van. Wonder if it is rated for that weight?

I remember my grandpa telling me about people that needed gone always showing up in abandoned coal mines when they decided to reopen them no matter how well the mine was sealed.
Crabs and catfish gotta eat, too. So there is that... It's been done before.

Hmm, no mention of a weapon. Seems at odds with that amount of drugs and cash.

All in their 30s and probably not a year of work experience between all three of them.
