Trump Says He'll Join D.C. Patrols on Thursday Night

President Trump said during a radio interview that he would join a patrol on the streets of Washington on Thursday night, going out alongside police officers and members of National Guard units who have been deployed to the city as part of his crackdown on the city. It is not clear what time or where in the capital the president might go on his planned patrol, or what his presence would require in terms of logistics, and the White House did not immediately provide details. Even a short drive across town by the president's armored motorcade is generally a tightly planned event; an open-air trip to the streets would most likely require unusually high security. 'I'm going to be going out tonight, I think with the police, and with the military of course,' he said during an interview with Todd Starnes, a conservative talk radio host based in Tennessee. 'We're going to do a job,' Mr. Trump added. Federal law enforcement units, including National Guard members from several states, have come into the city since Mr. Trump last week declared a public safety emergency, allowing him to enlist the city's police in a Justice Department-led effort to combat crime. They have been deployed to some of the city's popular nightlife districts, and also to the capital's tourist areas, including neighborhoods around the White House and Union Station. The forced marriage between local and federal law enforcement officials has caused friction, as the federal officials focus not just on arresting violent criminals, but also devote considerable attention to immigration arrests and dismantling homeless encampments.

Maryland mother charged with murder of her 3-year-old child

A Maryland mother was charged with murder Wednesday in connection with the death of her 3-year-old child in November 2024, according to Howard County police. Police said Shalyne Brown, 27, does not have a permanent address, but was staying in Columbia at the time of her child's death. She was charged with murder and child abuse, officials said. Officers said they were called to the home in Columbia on Nov. 1, 2024, for a reported dead child. When they arrived, officers found that the child's body had multiple bruises and scars. An autopsy, completed in March, showed that the child's death was due to dehydration and malnourishment, police said. Through an investigation, police determined that Brown was responsible for her child's death due to neglect and abuse. Brown was arrested in Pennsylvania and was transferred to the Howard County Detention Center, where she is being held without bond. She is expected to appear in court on September 4, court records show. In Maryland, nearly 83 children died from neglect or abuse in 2023, according to a report from the Children's Bureau of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Maryland has seen several cases of maternal filicide, or instances where a mother kills her child, in recent years. In May, a Baltimore County mother, Aurielle Montgomery, pleaded guilty to killing her 1-year-old daughter in 2022. Officials determined that her child, Nyemia Gilliard, died from trauma. Montgomery was the sole caregiver for Gilliard, who was found unresponsive in an "odd position" in a Baltimore home, court documents detailed. Another similar case in June led to charges for a Maryland couple. Maryland mother Darrian Randle and her boyfriend, Cedrick Britten, were accused of killing Randle's 3-year-old and attempting to hide her body before reporting a false kidnapping in Delaware. According to court documents, an investigation after the false kidnapping report led to the discovery of 3-year-old Nola Dinkin's body in a Cecil County park. Randle and Britten are both facing charges in connection with Dinkin's death.
