RIP Cody Lacey

deMontjoie · Jul 26, 2015

SoMD is no longer immune from horrific criminal behavior, as if we ever were.
It is oozing closer all the time.

Yesterday, Cody Lacey was shot and killed. Police are looking for Alan Rangel as a suspect.

RIP Cody Lacey. Prayers and sympathies to your family. We hope that justice will come swiftly in this case.

Couldn't get the link to work.

Sad story. My son knows Cody's cousin. Devastating for the family. Hope they catch the perp ASAP. Supposedly has a lengthy rap sheet. Needs to go away for a long time.

Always sad when someone is murdered. I pray for his familly and friends that the lord will comfort them. Very sad. :sad20:

I hope justice is served.

And this.

Surprise, surprise... perp has a history of assault. He's moved up from baseball bats to firearms.

But I'm sure he was trying to turn his life around...

This is what the POS looks like.
Alan Michael Rangel

Good news. Hopefully the courts put him away for good but this is Maryland.

deMontjoie · Jul 28, 2015

Sorry about the bad link.

As CSS said, they arrested him today. Good work.

But as Perrin said, this is Maryland, so don't count on him doing much time. :sad20:

Here's another link that is relevant (hopefully it will work): http://smnewsnet.com/archives/361704/cody-michael-lacey/

Rest In Peace young man.

P.S. I will be talking to Delegates Matt Morgan and Deb Rey about new bills for next year's legislative session that would enhance penalties for capital crimes and reduce the "good-time" breaks that are often granted to such perpetrators. Perhaps we might call this effort "Cody's Law", although that is probably premature -- but it would be nice way of memorializing Cody Lacey.
We'll also talk to Senators Tony O'Donnell and Steve Waugh to see what support we might get in the Senate.
Note that this is similar to Del. Mike Smigiel's proposed amendment to 2013's SB281 conference committee. I was in the room when it passed, before chairman Joseph Vallario committed what appeared to be blatant fraud and quashed that vote. So they will need our strong support to have a hope of making this happen.

Thanks for pursuing this with our delegates.
Maybe those folks will finally wake up in Annapolis and do the right thing.

Both accomplices got caught too
(in addition to the chick that was caught with primary POS #1).
Quick work, and hefty bail.

Tomcat · Jul 29, 2015

Another convicted felon in possession of a handgun :sad20:

I'm sure he had his HQL :sarcasm:

I also remember the proposed amendments to HB281 about no good time and mandatory sentences for using a handgun in a crime. Maybe we can throw that back in their faces next year :mad54:

Here's yesterday's article from the Enterprise:

Tragic that we allow thugs like these perpetrators to continue to walk among us. :sad20:

My heart goes out to the family.

A1Uni · Jul 30, 2015

It's only a matter of time until some bleeding heart starts that "two young lives tragically ended" crap, trying to get simpathy for the murderer.

F-the shooter, and anyone who helped him. Burn in Hell.

Yep. Agree wholeheartedly.

Here's a page of information from the County Times: http://issuu.com/somdcom/docs/2015-07-30/c/sc7uh70

Interesting article about his violent criminal past. Why wasn't this scumbag already rotting-away in jail? That's a question that we need to ask of our LE system.

Mad_Max · Jul 31, 2015

It's clear we need more criminal control and not more gun control.

but criminals vote and stimulate the economy when they aren't in jail...
