In August 2006, a Baltimore jury awarded Albert Mosley $44 million after concluding that he became paralyzed when a city police officer threw him against a jail cell wall. Baltimore officials have now agreed to pay less than 5 percent of that amount, with the city's spending panel approving $2 million Wednesday to settle the matter. The vote ends years of litigation, but the final payout has left Mosley's attorney "outraged" even after he negotiated the deal. "That all we can do is pay $2 million to a quadriplegic under these circumstances should tell the public that the city has no heart or soul about the victims of police brutality," said attorney William H. Murphy Jr. Many lawyers in Murphy's position ultimately determine that accepting a smaller one-time payment from the city is preferable to trying to recoup a larger amount through a percentage of the officer's wages over time.

The boys soccer matchup last night between Severna Park and No. 10 Broadneck was typical for the archrivals, filled with hard tackles, creative chances and drama to the final whistle. The Falcons and Bruins traded goals two minutes apart in the second half, and then J.D. Kershaw knocked in the winning goal off a Broadneck defender 1:20 into the second overtime to give visiting Severna Park a 2-1 victory. The teams could meet again for the Anne Arundel County title and again in the Class 4A East playoffs.

Timothy D. Price III of Owings Mills was revived moments later and heard Baltimore Circuit Judge Robert B.
