that can't possibly be real. right??

Wait why does someone who killed someone with a car while high on drugs and actively running from the cops get his license restored and a free car? Less than 8 years later?

Has anyone had experience with building construction near them? After the exterior is built, is it still loud when they are building the inside?

You’re driving along and don’t notice that the bike that was tied to your call falls off? Sus.

Haven’t had these since I lived in Mississippi! They hit! Will def be keeping an eye on the comments

My favorite part of the article is "Included in Judge Iscoe sentence is that upon release, Robert Earl Little Jr. will receive a new car of his choice and full restoration of license."

Lol. This is not a Marine base - you can't just park any old place.

where did you go to hike at?

It’d be a real shame if something happened to this guy after he got out

We don't have the ability to refuse Kirk Cameron use of the space so long as he abides by library rules. So long as he is just doing a public reading from his book and doesn't start to actively proselytize while on the building campus our hands are tied.

Lucky for me I don't work at Cleveland Park and as such won't have to deal with this awful meeting, but I feel for the staff who do.

Please be aware that the library IS NOT ENDORSING NOR OTHERWISE INVOLVED OTHER THAN PROVIDING THE SPACE.

​

Due to the way the library offers its services, we can't turn down any public meetings so long as they abide by the rules and regulations as delineated on our website. Ergo the staff at Cleveland Park would be going against our mission of being open and available to everybody so long as they aren't indulging in hate speech or bringing out torches.

Nothing. Break your lease if it’s an issue for you.

What a wimpy ass judge

Which is not forever.

As others have said, earplugs, or try and move.

If you are a volant criminal looking to do less than eight years for a reckless killing, DC's the best place for them to be.

No. I’ve had construction next to my place for the past month and it’s supposed to last another month. Kinda just stuck.

It’s for a whole year

>It’s very Loud but only during working hours and on saturdays.

These are typical work hours since it's generally prohibited during night time hours unless they have a special permit or it's emergency work.

As someone else mentioned unless you can get a city inspector out and record the db in not in compliance in noise ordinance & working hours there aren't too many options.

You’re stuck with it or break your lease

-thppt- to the downvoters. I think it's pretty.

the last couple of nights, the weather reports on one of the local stations was using a view of the trees and the gridlock as background. Sometimes the cars were actually moving, most times, not.

Assuming you’re renting from a private landlord, they might be willing to break the lease for you if you find the next tenant and they take over without any break in renting.

DCWitness 2019 coverage

"Judge Iscoe said he was moved by the more than 40 victims impact letters from Salovesh’s friends and family. The letters contained testimonies to how gregarious,intelligent, and impactful the 54-year-old was, the judge said.  

“This is one of the most painful sentencings I have ever experienced,” he said.

Judge Iscoe agreed to the terms of the plea deal and sentenced Little to 8 and a half  years in prison for voluntary manslaughter with five years of supervised release. In addition, he ordered that Little participate in drug testing and drug treatment. 

According  to court documents,  Little was going 76mph down Florida Avenue, NE in a stolen van attempting to evade police. He then struck another car at a red light and propelled into Salovesh who was waiting at the light on his bicycle. There were also traces of PCP found in his blood."

Already got it easier than deserved.

Honestly put their cars in a crusher, they have proven they aren't responsible enough to be commanding a 2 ton metal box
