Splish Splash...not taking a bath.
..now body is found!
LUSBY (May 5, 2008) --- Calvert Sheriff
Mike Evans now confirms that a man who
ran from police on Friday night when
neighbors called to complain about a
loud party was found dead today in Lake
Lariat, near his home.
Police looked for the man when he ran
into woods and Sheriff Evans said that
there was no reason to call out a dive
team as no one at the scene heard a
splash or had any reason to believe he
had dived into the lake.
After searching the wooded area near the
party, police left without making any
arrests.
Drug activity was suspected as a reason
the man may have fled and on Sunday
there was a report he was in St. Mary's
County.
Family members complained that someone
had heard a splash, but apparently none
of his friends or family bothered to
look in the lake themselves.
Recovered from the lake in the
Chesapeake Ranch Club was Lamar
Demetrious Hall.
Running from the police is a sure way to
guarantee that the police will not
guarantee your safety, as you are not in
their custody. Running from police
and jumping into a lake should be
attempted only by those who can swim.
Now hear the complaints from the family
of Lamar Demetrius Hall.
Hall's aunt says that Hall was wanted
for failure to pay child support and he
knew police had a warrant for him
and that was why he ran. She said that
when his body was found he had two
broken arms, according to family
sources, which is about the equivalent
as getting news from Iran's government.
She also complained that the police
wouldn't let his mother see him before
"shipping him off directly to the State
Medical Examiner". She said that
the family had heard directly from a
deputy on Saturday that the officers had
heard a splash when they were chasing
Hall through the woods on Friday night.
Sheriff Evans confirmed that the
officers who responded to the house for
a loud party knew that
Hall had a warrant issued for him, only
after arriving.
Police are ordered by the courts to find
the men who refuse to support their
children, leaving the mother of their
child high and dry and worrying about
how to provide food for their baby.
Sheriff Evans was asked why his officers
didn't call out a dive team on Friday
night and he said that they had no
reason to do so, that they had heard no
splashes and on Saturday they had a
report that Hall had been spotted in St.
Mary's, which the family said was a
report from "some crack head".
The Sheriff said that all bodies are
sent directly to the Medical Examiner
upon recovery and his deputies did not
break Hall's arms and thrown him in the
lake.
This story is a tragic one for the
mother of Hall but once again shows the
insanity level which reaches throughout
the Southern Maryland society and once
again the problem of "Rooster" males
willing to make babies but being
unwilling to pay for them. The
government pays for the babies and
provides Section 8 Housing for the
mother hens and the roosters come back
and forth and when the police show up
they run.
Hall's aunt said he wasn't a angel but
didn't deserve this. What he got
was his own making due to running from
his responsibilities. Now he leaves the
mother of his child holding the bag, the
taxpayers paying the freight and his
mother grieving for his lost life.
His aunt reports Hall was a good
swimmer.
Had Hall gone quietly with the police,
the 26-year-old man would have been able
to get out of jail in a couple of days,
get a job and pay for his kid. Now
his family will likely pay plenty for a
nice funeral and no one will pay a thing
for his child.
In the meantime, fine young officers are
being portrayed as breaking Hall's arms
and dumping his lame dead body in a
lake.
This preposterous load of horse manure
is outrageous but don't look for Hall's
family to bother to apologize to the
deputies that they slander.
