13-year-old with 18 felony arrests under his belt and a GPS monitor on his ankle charged in violent Baltimore crime spree

A 13-year-old male who already had 18 felony arrests on his record recently was charged in connection with a spree of armed carjackings and robberies, WBFF-TV reported, citing Baltimore Police.

Around 6:44 a.m. July 26, officers responded to an attempted carjacking, the station said. The victim reported that in the 2300 block of Guilford Street, two male juveniles exited their car and ran toward her vehicle, WBFF said. When the victim re-entered her car, the suspects entered it, too, and struck her multiple times with an unknown black object, the station said. The victim managed to reverse her car, after which the suspects fled the scene, police told WBFF.

Almost 24 hours later — around 5:31 a.m. July 27 — officers were called to the scene of a carjacking in the 100 block of East Lanvale Street, the station said. The victim said a vehicle blocked her path, and three suspects exited the vehicle and demanded her keys, wallet, and phone, WBFF said. The victim complied, and the suspects drove away in her vehicle, followed by the car they drove to the scene, the station said, citing officials.

Around 8:25 p.m. July 27, an armed robbery victim told police that around 5 a.m. earlier that day while heading to a store in the 200 block of East 24th Street, three males with a handgun approached her, "announced a robbery," and took her purse, which contained money and house keys, WBFF reported.

The station said investigators on July 28 tracked the suspects' vehicle using its tag and located it — along with the stolen car — in the 500 block of Highland Avenue.

Police identified one of the suspects as a 13-year-old male in question since his ankle monitor GPS placed him at the scene of each crime, WBFF reported.

The 13-year-old was arrested and taken to juvenile booking, where he was charged with carjacking, robbery, assault, and several other offenses, officials told the station.

"The juvenile has 18 previous felony arrests in Baltimore City," police wrote on their official Facebook page, according to WMAR-TV. "The investigation is still ongoing to identify the other individuals involved."

Former Baltimore City Police Deputy Commissioner Jason Johnson told WBFF in a follow-up story that young repeat offenders are a growing problem: "The state maintains juvenile detention facilities for a reason. And this is a poster child literally for the type of person that needs to be detained."

Effective July 3, acting Department of Juvenile Services Secretary Betsy Fox Tolentino launched a new policy requiring all teens arrested for violent felonies while already wearing ankle monitors to be automatically detained until their next court dates, WBFF said in a third story.

But it's unclear whether that policy was applied to the 13-year-old in question, the station said, adding that a DJS spokesperson said state law prevents the agency from discussing specific cases.

Mark Crosby — a pro-life Baltimore resident who was brutally beaten up in 2023 in front of a Planned Parenthood in the city, only for the culprit to walk away without any jail time — gave Blaze News a succinct reaction to the news of the 13-year-old male with the already lengthy rap sheet charged in connection with the local crime spree: "Bring in the troops!"

An old news story about getting away.

Big problem with juvenile offenders. Yes, they always get let out to commit more crimes at age 18. But all along the way they have a poorly formed sense of right and wrong and almost no regard for the feelings of someone if they decide to kill them on a whim.

One chilling case was Nathaniel Abraham represented by narcissistic lawyer Geoffrey Fieger. In 1999 he murdered an 18 year old stranger standing in front of a convenience store. Age 11 and tried at age 13.

I will never forget the lawyer putting his arm around the killer as the killer looked really bored and put upon by having to sit through more testimony in court.

Verdict: Guilty of second-degree murder
Sentence: Placement in a juvenile detention center until the age of 21.
/////////////////
Update. He got out of prison in 2017.
“Those who have investigated, prosecuted and monitored Abraham describe him as someone who does whatever he pleases and believes he is a “celebrity” after being courted by the likes of Oprah Winfrey.”
//////////
June 25, 2019. The Detroit News.
Pontiac — Nathaniel Abraham, who made national news when convicted of murder at the age of 11, is headed back to prison.

Abraham, now 33, of Pontiac was sentenced Tuesday in Oakland County Circuit Court to 6 to 40 years in prison for selling drugs to an undercover police officer in Farmington Hills. He pleaded guilty as charged May 28 to delivery of methamphetamine and heroin, felonies that carry up to 20 years in prison.

Abraham was also charged as a habitual offender, fourth offense, which can carry up to life in prison.

“Mom, this isn’t bad — he could have received a much higher sentence,” said defense attorney James Galen, trying to comfort Abraham’s mother, Gloria Abraham, outside the courtroom with a dozen other relatives and friends.

Not a single mention of parent/parents in this.

This kid does not have any parents. He has a woman who birthed him who probably has little to do with him now, a grandmother who quit caring years ago. And he likely never even knew his father of if he did his father is in prison or dead.

This is LBJs Great Society 50 years and three generations of welfare later. This is what the Democrats and the Washington parasites has given us. And they don't give a damn about this kid, his victims or where this crap is taking the country. All they care about is how much money they can scam off the system.

Instead of “what’s the matter? Cat got your tongue?” it was the cat’s got his ankle monitor. 🐱

This kid is almost guaranteed to take someone’s life at some point in the future if he’s not put away for a long time.
