murder in the Mid-Atlantic
Readers of the Baltimore Sun's website (my primary source of information for murders in the Baltimore Metro Area) may have seen recently that they are introducing a paywall. I've never made any money off this site before, but it's now going to start costing me about $50 every six months to maintain (beyond my hosting costs). For this reason, I've decided to set up a Paypal account to accept donations. Thanks for your help!

When the map states someone's address, and then says that another person involved in the incident is "of the same address," that just means their address is on the same block, not necessarily in the same house.
