Baltimore-area Patch readers speak their minds.
Owings Mills-Reisterstown: “Mimi was a very nice lady and my wife and I loved her very much. On another site's article I saw someone post a comment blaming her death on the police for breaking off the pursuit.

It's a utter shame and we're heartbroken that this time it didn't work out that way. The blame for her death has to fall squarely on the shoulders of Mr. Mottley.” – John P Roberts III on Police: Suicidal Motorist Kills Reisterstown Woman, Hospitalizes Self in Crash Bel Air: “@BelAirPatch @HCPSchools this just makes no sense. All they do is watch movies the last 3 days anyway. #wastedtaxes” – …
