| Lou Hennessey Appointed
District Court Judge
ANNAPOLIS --- (Jan 6, 2005) Del. William Louis
Hennessey (R. La Plata) was appointed to the District Court of Maryland by Governor Robert
Ehrlich this week. Hennessey, a former District police detective, went to law school
in his spare time and began the practice of law in 1998 with an office in Charles
County. In 2002 he ran a tight race as the GOP candidate for States Attorney losing
to Len Collins. After the 2003 appointment of Tim Hutchins to the governor's
cabinet, Hennessey was appointed to fill out the remainder of Hutchins term in the House
of Delegates. Hennessey, who's father-in-law is a member of the Democratic Central
Committee, enjoyed strong support from the Governor, who balked at the list sent to him by
the Charles County Bar Association. A new list including Hennessey's name was sent to the
Governor in November. Hennessey was a high profile homicide detective in Washington,
D.C., often appearing on the evening news. Hennessey was the target of killers who
attacked his office in the DC Police headquarters on Indiana Ave. and killed his fellow
detective and two FBI agents in 1993. Hennessey was in a running battle with the DC Police
Chief, Larry Soulsby. Soulsby was later mired in a ethics probe and was fired,
giving vindication to Hennessey.

broadcast a lookout for 4 black males about 20, with white tee shirts wrapped around their

wrapped around their heads ought to be a clue to someone that they are either armed
robbers or just kinda short on proper headgear for snow storms....
The combined task force of State Police and St. Mary's Sheriff's Detectives, known as the
BCI, are investigating this robbery. Tips can qualify bearers of information for as
much as $1,000 from Crimesolvers. so rat out that tee-shirt head and make some cold hard

HOLLYWOOD (Jan. 30, 2005) --- A US Naval Officer and his girlfriend were
killed Saturday night on Rt. 245 just south of Hollywood when he was going too fast, lost
control of his vehicle and crossed the center line of the highway into the path of a
pickup truck which T-boned him at the driver's door, killing him on impact. His
passenger was taken to St. Mary's Hospital, as Med-Evac helicopters were down due to bad
weather, according to St. Mary's Sheriff's Sgt. Theodore Belleavoine, who reconstructed
the crash. The passenger died a few hours later. Both the U.S. Navy Officer, who was
37 years old and his girlfriend lived at Solomon's. They were identified as Lt. Commander
Denis Gerald Tri and Tricia K. Goken. Charles D. Woodburn, of Leonardtown, was
operating the 1986 Dodge pickup. Woodburn was treated for minor injuries at St. Mary's
Hospital.
Sgt. Belleavoine reports that Woodburn, according to witnesses, was
following a salt truck and had allowed a lot of distance between his vehicle and the SHA
truck when Tri's vehicle crossed the center line.

Mechanicsville Vol. Fire Dept.
CHARLOTTE HALL (Jan. 21, 2005)
---- State fire marshal investigators "are investigating the close geographic
proximity of three recent fires believed to be cases of arson and the method of setting
the fires," said State Deputy Fire Marshal W. Faron Taylor.
With two fires set at within 15 minutes of each other this week, one on Tuesday and the
other on Thursday, and only a block apart, residents of the area should be sleeping with
one eye open or a family member standing guard.
The old brick house, formerly the home of the late Elliott Burch Sr., founder of Burch Oil
Company and St. Mary's Commissioner President, was totally destroyed in a fire early
today. The building had been used as a headquarters for the Southern Maryland Drug
Task Force, before it was disbanded when St. Mary's Sheriff Richard Voorhaar pulled his
detectives out of the tri county effort. Next, the building housed offices of the
Walden drug counseling center and recently had housed an antique shop. Two off duty
firefighters first reported the fire which they discovered as they drove by on Rt. 5 on
their way to work. Two St. Mary's Deputies joined them in their effort to make sure
no one was inside the structure. Firefighters from all over the area assisted
Mechanicsville in the effort to put out the blaze. This is the third arson fire in
the past week in Charlotte Hall. A garage was set afire as well as a vacant
building. Tips on these fires can be given over the Arson Hotline at 800-492-7529 . Cash rewards can be used to pay for a house payment or a car
payment or even a vacation.

Dropped in Loot Case...
LEONARDTOWN (Jan. 19, 2005) After last week's not guilty
verdict in the case against Wendell Ford, Robert Moreland, the Special Prosecutor, who has
soaked up more than $25,000 in taxpayer funds for his misadventure in corruption cover-up
for those who stole a tractor trailer load of building materials from the St. Mary's
Sheriff's headquarters, has dropped charges against the last of Ford's co-defendants,
making this a clean sweep of no convictions. Moreland was appointed by the court due
to Fritz recusing himself, after he was told to do so by the State Prosecutor.
Fritz's campaign treasurer is the wife of the man who allowed the loot to disappear from
police custody. Meanwhile, watch for the civil case to heat up and the taxpayers to
lose even more. When you see St. Mary's Sheriff Dave Zylak, ask him: "Where's
the Loot?"

Democrats Dying Off
at Rate of 5 to 1 Over GOP
LEONARDTOWN (Jan. 17, 2005) ---Democratic Party members who are
registered voters aren't leaving their party in record numbers due to moving to Florida or
changing to the GOP, they are simply dying in order to quit being associated with Hillary
Clinton or John Kerry. According to the St. Mary's Election office, 27 Democrats
died in December and were removed from voter rolls compared to 6 Republicans, which ought
to cheer up Tommy "Hambone" McKay as he prepares to run for the State Senate
against Senator Roy Dyson. Republicans, however, are 1/3 more likely to go to jail,
as 2 Democrats were removed from voter rolls compared to 3 Republicans, a harbinger for
McKay as details of his sleazy land deal known as Hambone Hamlet continue to leak out.
There are now a total of 21,677 Democrats in St. Mary's County, 19,801 Republicans, 7,291
who hate both parties equally and decline to affiliate and 563 Independents.
There are 99 whackos who list themselves members of the Green Party. |
