FW: Darrell Barber is back.

3D has detailed a team in the mornings to try to break this burglary spree. If you see Darrell Barber, give me a call with his location and I will convey to officers on the case on duty at the time.

 

The below generated a lot of stories about Barber but none leading to anything, yet.

There have been 14 recent home burglaries in East Dupont. Some fitting this pattern are in Logan and Shaw. Most are in the morning from 7 to 11. I’ve seen the man below on the streets many times recently and strongly suspect he is the perpetrator. In a perfect world (well-functioning government) he wouldn’t have been released without restrictions back into the community after his most recent conviction. This is a problem, I’ve been pushing the City Council would address.

The US Attorney’s office confirmed that Darrel Barber was released from jail in March. I suspect he is committing day-time house burglaries again. If he (pictured) knocks on your door to ask if you want to have some yard works done, he is probably doing so to break in if you didn’t answer. I don’t yet know if his probation conditions prohibit him from certain areas

 

If a listserv stripped the photos off the email, the pictures of Darrell Barber are posted on this page http://ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/DupontForum/photos/browse/70d8. One is titled “Day Burglar Person of Interest”.

I had a passionate discussion about what to do about homelessness, Wednesday. Thanks to all who came out. But what to do next?

 

Craig Keller, from the Homeless Services section of DC’s Department of Mental Health, offered to follow up with individual cases and property owners who are not operating in accordance with the community (my phrase). He seemed to be hot on the task. Send him the location and time the person is there and he will try to help them.

 

He also offered to talk to property owners such as churches who are creating issues. We had quite a few churches represented Wednesday but a few didn’t respond to invitations to come.

Also, this Wednesday at 7pm Foundry is having another open meeting. It’s “Solutions to Homelessness.” I can’t make that, but I hope some of you can and can convey to me the gist and desired follow on.

Dupont Public Safety Meeting/PSA 306 is Tuesday June 19 at 7pm at the Foundry Methodist at the NW corner of 16th and P.  (It’s usually held on the 3rd Tuesdays for Dupont and Kalorama-Sheridan issues at 1620 V Street NW.) Our community depends on good communications to and from our police. This is a roundtable meeting where we problem-solve. Bring an issue – no matter how minor. Or email me or our lieutenants to submit items for discussion.

 

We’ll concentrate on public safety and homelessness issues revolving around churches, Borderstan (14th to R to 16th to P) issues, and whatever other in general public safety issues people want to address.

 

We’re concentrating on church issues because quite a few people have independently had issues with what goes on around different churches in that area. Thank you to Foundry Methodist (http://www.foundryumc.org/) for hosting.

 

If I find out from the US Attorney that a particular burglar is out of jail again, I’ll send out his photo – since he matches the description of a suspect committing day home burglaries.

Public Safety Meeting, 2nd Meeting on Potential Move of PSA, and Nat Night Out

 

Dupont Public Safety Meeting/PSA 306 is Tuesday July 17 at 7pm for Dupont and Kalorama-Sheridan issues at the 1620 V Street 3D Station. (It’s always held on the 3rd Tuesdays.) Our community depends on good communications to and from our police. This is a roundtable meeting where we problem-solve. Bring an issue – no matter how minor. Or email me or our lieutenants to submit items for discussion. I plan to talk about some drug dealing and some burglaries. You drive the agenda, though. MPD has been solving some long-standing problems recently. Give them a try.

 

2nd District meeting to discuss PSA 306 moving to 2D. Wednesday July 18th at St. Columba’s Church, 4201 Albemarle Street, NW at 6:30. Dept Chief Newsham and 2D Commander Solberg will present on PSA 306 potentially becoming PSA 208. Based on the first meeting and general feedback to date, I don’t see objecting to the entire PSA moving over in a month or 2.

 

National Night Out Tuesday August 7th from 5pm to 7pm at Hopkins and P(Hopkins is in between 20th and 21st. Mark and Orlando’s, Palomar Hotel, and Main Streets are sponsoring. Nationwide MPD comes out in the streets to talk to people and offer some munchies (food should be good.). Problems in that area range from some street drug dealing to school kids getting rowdy. Come meet the police who can help deal with crime issues that you have. http://www.nationalnightout.org/

The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) would like to hear from the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender (GLBT) community before finalizing any plans to enhance MPD's liaison units. MPD is engaging the public in the development of these units, with the ultimate goal of increasing citywide access to these units. 

Over the next few weeks, there will be group meetings in the GLBT community to solicit input in all seven police districts. These meetings will help the Department gather perceptions of MPD and hear concerns about the services MPD provides to members of the GLBT community.  The information from these meetings will be incorporated into a final plan for enhancements to the GLLU.

Details about the dates and times of the GLLU-specific meetings are provided below, as well as in the attached public flyer; feel free to distribute it to interested parties.  For those residents who are unable to attend the meetings, the MPD has created an e-mail address to allow another means of submission of suggestions and/or concerns regarding the liaison units: mpdc.liaisonunits@dc.gov. For more information about the meetings or any of the MPD liaison units, please contact the following:
