ReplyLynda, Police have not released any information, and I would prefer that folks not publish any names, addresses or info that they might know of without police confirmation. I'll update the story as soon as police officials release the info. — Marge

ReplyA comment that said charges have been pressed was removed ... according to Baltimore County police officials as of a few minutes ago, no charges have yet been pressed against anyone. — Marge

1ke, I'm not sheltering anyone; I've removed Mr. Beeler's comments before when necessary. And I don't see how I can be accused of sheltering him by standing up for another commenter. Mr. Beeler's comments were among those I had in mind when I said that all readers' opinions need to be respected. Opinions are just that, and aren't necessarily right or wrong, but rather the convictions of an individual. Believing yours to be right doesn't give you the right to tell another they're wrong, and that's what I said. That goes for Mr. Beeler as well as anyone else. What loses credibility is when anyone has to call names, personally attack others, use cuss words or other abusive terms and bully others to get their point across. It also strips this website of its credibility, and I put in way too much time and energy to maintain it to have a few people constantly tear it down. While you all publicly beat each other up, I receive hundreds of emails complaining about the tone and lack of civility in the comments section. I've lost readers because of it, and I'm sick of it. If you are confident in your opinion/findings/research, state it in a civilized manner without calling people names, without beating each other up, without trashing the opinions of others and telling them they're wrong. It's that simple.

ReplyFolks, I agree with many posters here ... a reader is entitled to his or her opinion, and those whose opinions differ should still respect the views of others and not argue. Say your piece without telling the other person they are wrong. Thanks! — Marge

Several comments have been removed because they violate Patch's terms of use agreement. Make your point or leave your opinion without name-calling and personal attacks. And name-calling includes playground bullying versions of other readers' names. — Marge

Folks, at this point little is being added to the conversation other than name-calling, accusations, hearsay and personal attacks, so I'm closing the comments section.
I'll publish an update if and when any additional, confirmed, relevant information about this incident becomes available. — Marge
