High cost of drug sentences in Maryland
I ASKED Donta Ellerbe, a 28-year-old Baltimorean who spent too much of his young life selling heroin in his hometown, what he would like to do for a living, now that he's sworn off the hustle, and this is what he said: "I'm a good people person.

Obstacles on the road to a man's redemption
Take LaFawn Weaver, for instance. Here's a young man who admits to making bad choices and getting arrested a couple of times -- back when he was a teenager, primarily -- and blowing a good job because he liked to smoke reefer. OK. So it's time to move on....Tags: Crimes, Police Arrests, Maryland, Employees, Anne Arundel County

Access to drugs in jail was a death sentence
There's no question that Michael Rabuck should have been institutionalized. People and their property in the city and Baltimore County were safer with him off the street.

Cause for ex-offenders crosses party lines
Mary Ann Saar, Maryland's public safety secretary, said it again last week at a breakfast honoring both ex-offenders who find their way into the mainstream working world and the companies that have the guts to hire them: "This is not a liberal issue.

Out of the 'wickedness' and into the kitchen
Iam regularly pleased by the number of Sun readers who ask about Harry Calloway Jr. I get it all the time. People ask how he's doing, what he's doing, whether he's staying out of trouble - and this continues several months after Calloway first emerged...Tags: Drug Trafficking, Crimes, Police Arrests, Restaurant and Catering Industry, Crime, Law and Justice

Why they sell poison, and why many can't stop
FOUR MEN - one in his 40s and tired of going to jail, one who just barely escaped the bullets that killed his best friend, one under pressure from police and family to change careers, another who left the streets six years ago to work toward a middle-...Tags: FBI, Crimes, Drug Trafficking, Police Arrests, Sales

Passing on hard-learned lessons on Father's Day
THIS IS Berson Tyner's first Father's Day as a free man in 10 years. For most of the past decade -- and for several of the years before that -- he was a prisoner in the Maryland correctional system. If he saw his three sons on Father's Day, it was...Tags: Crimes, Restaurant and Catering Industry, Family, Prisons, Father's Day

Ex-dealer is no longer the man he used to be
A young, beautiful, dark-skinned woman, her hair in cornrows and her arms wrapped around her pregnancy, sits at the end of a park bench, silent and depressed, and for good reason: She's married to a 25-year-old drug dealer who suffered brain damage in a...Tags: Crimes, Drug Trafficking, Catonsville, Crime, Law and Justice, Pikesville

Blackwater: Not in our backyards
If you turned on C-SPAN on Tuesday and thought for a moment that you'd punched in some all-action-movie channel by mistake, I can't blame you. What was coming out of the television? Talk of Christmas Eve gunplay in Baghdad. An Iraqi vice president's...Tags: San Diego County (California), Chuck Norris, Los Angeles, Holidays, Executive Branch

'60s still alive on a corner in Echo Park
POINTS WESTA spirited Art Goldberg was up in his shabby Echo Park office Monday afternoon, above the Vietnamese bakery with the moon cakes he loves, counting votes for the antiwar resolution he's been touting since August.
