Montgomery County police are investigating the theft of a vehicle from a home in Chevy Chase. The vehicle was taken from the driveway of a home in the 7700 Chatham Road. It is believed the vehicle was taken sometime between 9:30 PM Tuesday and 7:00 AM yesterday.
"This stolen vehicle is brought to you by the MoCo Council and the letter I for indifferent."
ReplyDeleteThere's no end in sight to this. The criminals are specifically coming to MoCo because it's easy pickings apparently without any real deterrence action by the Police. Complete and total betrayal of the community by MoCo Leadership.
ReplyDeleteYep. One block off East-West Highway. See that pattern here…………I really can’t understand why all the homeowners within a few blocks of major streets aren’t making a better effort to secure their cars at this point at least by the obvious things like locking their car doors ! It’s not that difficult………
ReplyDeleteEvery night occurrence in the new MoCo. And Elrich will be granted another term. Four more long years. Clueless and foolish electorate.
ReplyDeletePeople here blaming the council when in reality people just need to, get this, lock their cars? Call me a radical political shill for suggesting that but it seems like it might help the whole cars-getting-stolen situation
ReplyDelete@ 129 Maybe folks are abusing our current MD insurance regulations. For example, I'm upside down on my car wishing somebody would steal it.
ReplyDeleteNothing to see here, but the screeching's of the anti-county antifa's of the rightwing, thinking they are a special group requiring added protection from the big bad boys of the world. Get over yourself selves, until the rest of society solves this problem, you are part of it, and not part of the solution, thank god.
ReplyDelete9:09 Fails to understand how & why cars are stolen. Just leaving a car open doesn't make it easier to steal as many cars are targeted by thieves using a relay attack. The MC Council is to blame due to low/no bail policies for repeat offenders and when they FTA, (failure to appear), there are no consequences.
ReplyDelete9:41 Is part of the problem in this county in that their representatives fail to enforce laws already on the books and when things go bad blame the party with virtually zero power to do anything. This is unfortunately typical liberal behavior not being able to accept the consequences of their actions. I get it, your a blind democrat supporter who thinks that doing the same thing over and over again while expecting different results works. If what you believe in worked, democrats and Brandon's approval would be inverted to what they are now.
Voters are indeed going to have buyer's remorse on Elrich. This is only the beginning of the downward spiral. This isn't a joke. And this isn't even about a particular party by the way. This is about a radical ideology and a dangerous one at that. We wouldn't care what party our leaders were at least not on the local level. Guys like Doug Duncan for instance would be a breath of fresh air. These people in office (and the head man you just put back in for another term, likely,) are feckless and clueless. They wouldn't know how to lead people out of a burning building. This is embarrassment is what this is. Crime and dystopia will continue. They won't fix it because they darn sure don't know how. Do they even care to? Probably not. Wake up before it's too late.
ReplyDeleteVote Cox
ReplyDeleteDemocrats are protecting criminals not homeowners
129 - are you seriously blaming the victims of crime? I have lived in Bethesda 40 years and I could always leave my car out without it being stolen until democrats took over and let criminals out on bail and backed defund the police
What next we can’t jog without being murdered like in Memphis by a career criminal
4:47 - Yes, that's exactly what we'll see especially when Wes Moore, Spike Lee's special guest, gets in. Good job MoCo voters. Won't even give another black man a look because of the R next to his name. We're screwed don't kid yourself. Time to arm up
DeleteDude, you sound confused. The Republicans nominated a white guy in 2022, as well as 2018 and 2014.
ReplyDelete@ 4:47 PM - The MoCoPoPo were not "defunded". The ONLY change in the past three years has been shifting the personnel and funds for School Resource Officers, to other areas. With no loss of either personnel or funding overall.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Memphis is in Tennessee, a very Red state, with little or no restrictions on guns.
6:08 is uncomfortable with facts: MC budget has shifted from enforcement to social welfare 2.21M in FY21.
ReplyDeleteMemphis has been under democrat, (Jim Strickland), since 2016. You guys are a trainwreck wherever your in charge.

ReplyDelete"Despite the disbanding of its auto theft unit due to budget cuts, police are still investigating stolen vehicles. Montgomery County police report 1,137 vehicles have been stolen so far this year."
Disbanding due to budget cuts... Go on, you can say what it is. I'll help you spell it too: D-e-f-u-n-d-i-n-g.
