  3. 2011: A re-wind

    Fast cars zipped around downtown Baltimore streets and, it turns out, the race promoters' financial messes. A robocall that urged voters to relax and stay home led jurors to a vote of their own: guilty of election fraud. We bade farewell to an iconic mayor, and began ushering out the city's last Fortune 500 company.

  4. Torbit killing: Never let it happen again

    For a department that has seen more than its share of troubles, perhaps none could count as a more painful failure for the Baltimore Police Department than the January killing of plainclothes Officer William Torbit Jr. by friendly fire as he was trying to break up a fight outside a downtown club. The incident, and the mysterious circumstances surrounding it, cast a stain on Mr. Torbit, the other officers and the entire department's training, practice and procedures. The decision by City State's Attorney Gregg Bernstein not to charge anyone in connection with the incident, which also resulted in the death of a civilian, Sean Gamble, provides a degree of exoneration for the officers, but it doesn't erase what happened.

  7. Correction

    A headline on the front page of Wednesday's editions of The Baltimore Sun gave an incorrect date for Gahiji Tshamba's fatal shooting of Tyrone Brown. The crime occurred in 2010. The Sun regrets the error.

  8. Just sentence in Tshamba case

    In sentencing former Baltimore City police Officer Gahiji A. Tshamba to 15 years in prison Tuesday for the fatal shooting of an unarmed man outside a Mount Vernon nightclub last year, Circuit Judge Edward R.K. Hargadon sent a powerful message: that no one, including those entrusted with protecting the public safety, is above the law. In a city where relations between police and residents have often been strained, the severity of the punishment should serve to reassure citizens that egregious criminal misconduct by police will not be tolerated and that the justice system will act swiftly and forcefully to hold wrongdoers to account.

  10. When damsels really aren't in distress

    Maybe it's a girl thing. Or rather, if only it had stayed a girl thing. That's what I thought, watching two cases that have been winding through the criminal justice system recently. On Tuesday, the now fired but then off-duty Baltimore policeman Gahiji...

  11. Officer Tshamba's behavior not surprising

    Why should any of us be surprised that Officer Gahiji Tshamba got angry and shot a man 12 times ("City officer gets 15-year term," Aug. 17). A few years ago, this police officer, while off duty and intoxicated, fired a gun at a car. Incredibly, he was...
