Baltimore City Police Department

Baltimore City Police Commissioner Richard Worley joins Midday to discuss the historic reduction in homicides and how he will continue this progress in 2025.

Billingsley is also accused of murdering local tech entrepreneur Pava LaPere days later and is due to stand trial in that case on Friday.

Baltimore City Police Chief Richard Worley was confirmed in October of last year, after several months as acting commissioner following the departure of former commissioner Michael Harrison.

But, council members expressed concerns about incomplete data and wanted more breakdown as to whom and where citations were issued.

BPD says the strategy is reducing vehicle-related fatalities.

We go On the Record with police Commissioner Richard Worley, six months into his job as Baltimore City’s top cop. We ask about guns, young people committing crimes, recruiting more officers, and connecting cops with the community.

The group, four adults and two juveniles, are accused of committing at least nine commercial robberies and 35 armed carjackings throughout the Baltimore area, mostly from April 2022 to March 2023.

“One of the things we really want to drive home is the need for more oversight and public investigation.”

In 2022, the city sued the ghost gun manufacturer alleging that its untraceable guns — those produced by the kits have no serial numbers — were contributing to the gun violence epidemic in Baltimore City.

The five indictments announced Tuesday range from assault, misconduct, excessive force and theft.
