Baltimore County and two of its police officers are out of a multimillion-dollar lawsuit stemming from a Randallstown High School shooting that left a student paralyzed. Judge Kathleen G. Cox ruled for those defendants on Wednesday, finding the officers had not entered a "special relationship" with William "Tippa" Thomas III to protect him from the shooter, classmate Matthew T. McCullough.

Leonard Supenski has spent the past six years as a consultant and college teacher, but colleagues say his heart lies with the hands- on police work that launched his career decades ago.

In a case with no direct precedent from the Maryland appellate courts or the U.S. Supreme Court, a man charged with drug and weapons violations after police opened the locked glove compartment of his car wants the evidence suppressed as the product of an illegal search. Baltimore County police stopped and arrested Jason K. Hamel in March for drunk driving. While arresting him, police found a holster and, after removing Hamel's three passengers from the car, went looking for a gun. An officer took Hamel's car key from the ignition and used it to open the locked glove box, where he found 19 baggies of cocaine, a stolen handgun and $2,100 in large bills.
