Obviously, they’re not too wise with their family resources. I can’t imagine needing a public defender with this high income. It saddens me that a person truly in need may be delayed in services due to this gamesmanship. Such a greedy couple. I used to find them as an attractive couple, now I just see ugly!
Edit- It was pointed out to me that other people won’t have delays in their trails if the Misty’s are tying up the public defenders. I honestly don’t know enough of the workings of their offices to understand how things are prioritized.

I’ve only known Roscoe as Fatty Arbuckle. Pretty sure he was involved in a huge sexual scandal the studio tried to hide.

I think Little Italy would have been just fine. Pretty sure Tommy DeAlesandro (Mayor) during that period lived in Little Italy. Nancy Pelosi’s father, her brother also served as Mayor in the 60’s. The area was rock solid. It was one of the few neighborhoods that didn’t have so much as a broken window during the riots which destroyed much of the city.

At the time of this plan. Baltimore still had its streetcar system. My parents lived in the city at this time, they both worked. My dad used the streetcar and my mom used the car since she worked in the county. Multiple cars serving one family didn’t hit until the mid to late ‘60’s. It’s my understanding that the Inner Harbor was a dark and desolate place for the most part. McCormick Spice (Light St.)and The NewsAmerican (across from Pratt St. Pavilion) brought many employees from the blue collar neighborhoods throughout the city. Banks, Insurance companies and other home offices lined N. Charles, Calvert and Lombard Streets. Residents still shopped at Lexington Market, The Fish Market and did shopping for clothing and household goods downtown. All this was reached by streetcar.

Not at all, just let me know where you’re settled and which areas you’ll frequent.

The thing about Baltimore, is it changes street to street and by the block. I had a relative visiting from Washington State 2 summers ago. I gave him streets to avoid and a hand drawn map telling him which ones.

I’m so sorry, I’m currently without a car and too far away to get to you. Do you mind me asking where your new job (not the company)is located? As stated above, get out of that neighborhood. I had a bad situation there when I got a flat tire one night, ugh. Do you have a friend or relative you can stay with tonight? You’ve been through physical and emotional trauma, a hot shower and not sleeping on the ground are in order.

I agree, is it because they prefer to spend their riches in other ways? Sure, blowing a ton of money on legal fees doesn’t compare to the endless shopping trips, designer clothing or vacations, but I bet they could scrape it together if their freedom relies upon it. Oh, maybe they can ask Sheila Dixon for pointers?
