Bail denied for teen arrested in deadly 2024 Columbia mall shooting
Bail has been denied for a Maryland teen who was arrested in New York for a deadly, 2024 shooting inside The Mall in Columbia, according to Howard County Police.
William Marshall III, 18, of Columbia, is accused of shooting and killing 17-year-old Angelo Little on July 27, 2024, at the Mall in Columbia. Marshall was 17 years old at the time.
UPDATE: Marshall waived extradition in New York City and had a bail review hearing this morning in Howard County. He was ordered held without bond at the Howard County Detention Center. — Howard County Police Department (@HCPDNews) June 9, 2025
Marshall was arrested in New York on May 28, after a search that lasted several months.
Teen arrested for deadly shooting inside Columbia Mall
Police said Marshall returned to Howard County last Friday in order to appear for his bail hearing Monday. He is currently being held at the Howard County Detention Center.
After the shooting, which happened after an altercation near the mall's food court, police issued a warrant for Marshall's arrest.
Authorities said Marshall specifically targeted Little in the attack.
Surveillance video released by Howard County Police last year showed Marshall running through several corridors of the mall, including the housekeeping hallway. In addition to the video, police released Marshall's picture.
A second post in late May, which recirculated the same video, reminding the public that they were continuing the search for Marshall, led to a public tip that Marshall was staying at an apartment in New York City.
Howard County Detectives, U.S. Marshals, and officers from the New York Police Department went to the location in Brooklyn, N.Y., searched the building, and found Marshall in an apartment.
Mother of Angelo Little grieves loss
Last year, Charell Wilson, Angelo's mother, spoke to WJZ, recounting the moment when she found out her son had been tragically killed.
Wilson said she and her son moved to Columbia from East Baltimore in 2014 because she thought it would be safer.
She said she did not expect to lose her son to gun violence in Columbia, which is currently experiencing a rise in youth violence.
Howard County Police data shows a rising trend in homicides.
In February of this year, another shooting at The Mall in Columbia left two teen victims dead – one a sophomore at Wilde Lake High School, and the other a freshman attending Oakland Mills High School.
18-year-old Emmetson Zeah was arrested in connection with the shooting and charged with murder.

Homeland Security Says Video Shows ‘Targeted Arrest,' Not Hit and Run
Federal agents used their unmarked vehicles to pin a car on Wednesday in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles and drew their weapons to make an arrest, prompting angry reactions as video showing the encounter spread quickly on social media. The Los Angeles Police Department initially said officers were investigating the incident near downtown as a possible assault or hit and run. But several hours later, the Department of Homeland Security said on social media that the episode was 'no hit and run.' 'This was a targeted arrest of a violent rioter' who had punched a Customs and Border Protection officer and tried to flee from agents, the department posted on X. It named the person who had been arrested but did not provide charging documents or other evidence. Video of the crash shows two unmarked vehicles — a truck and an S.U.V. — colliding with a white sedan at an intersection. Smoke can be seen behind the sedan as agents immediately exit their vehicles with weapons drawn. The sedan's driver steps out with his hands raised. In another video, apparently recorded moments later, a woman holding a child beside the sedan can be seen asking an agent for the agent's name and badge number. The agent closes the passenger door of the S.U.V., which can be seen leaving the intersection. A press officer for the department did not immediately respond to a request for more details. On social media, the agency said: 'You will not stop us or slow us down. ICE and our federal law enforcement partners will continue to enforce the law. And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.'

More ‘Mostly Peaceful' Nonsense
Media outlets are hitting their Orwellian groove as they continue to emphasize the bright side of lawlessness. Try doing a news search of the term 'peaceful' and see how many of the resulting dispatches include a reference to violent activity. As the fact-checkers might say, the media industry is ensuring that there is no lack of important context—or is the industry just manufacturing excuses? 'Peaceful protesters help clean up Little Tokyo museum damaged during ICE protest,' says a hopeful headline from KABC in Los Angeles, leading with the theme of pleasant participants and then politely implying rather than stating directly that some protesters were violent.

In Trump's Washington, ‘You Don't Leave Home Without Your Lawyer'
For the roughly 80,000 lawyers in Washington and its environs, this is the worst of times and the best of times. Worst because President Trump's threats have prompted some of the nation's biggest firms to capitulate and pledge a collective $1 billion in free legal work for the White House. But it is best, at least in the volume of work, for the firms handling some of the astounding number of lawsuits — more than 400, according to a New York Times tracker — that have been filed against Trump's administration since the start of his second term. Some of those cases are in other states, but most are being fought in the nation's capital. 'This is a good time to be a lawyer in Washington,' said Gregory B. Craig, who was a White House counsel to former President Barack Obama. 'Good lawyers, like other humans, want to be wanted. And these days in Trump's world, whether you're an immigration lawyer or a university president or the head of an independent agency, you don't leave home without your lawyer.' Craig, who worked for more than four decades for two big-name firms, Williams & Connolly and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, retired in 2019 after his acquittal on a charge of lying to the Justice Department. He came out of retirement last week to work in the Washington office of Foley Hoag, a firm based in Boston. Donald B. Verrilli Jr., a partner at Munger, Tolles & Olson who was solicitor general under Obama, agreed that this was an extraordinary moment to be a Washington lawyer, but he sounded less chipper about it. Verrilli was the author of a brief supporting Perkins Coie, the first law firm targeted by Trump. Ultimately, 500 firms, mostly boutique and medium-sized, signed the brief, but only eight of them were among the nation's top 100 firms. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
