One of the accused Philly looters arrested was Kenneth Frye, who is also the former bouncer charged in punching death of Eric Pope outside Tabu in April 2022. Just looked at docket: 3rd murder was quashed, but still faces involuntary & now faces burglary charges @KYWNewsradio

According to police officials: July is shaping up to possibly be the deadliest month on record for Philadelphia. There have been at least 35 homicides (may go up bc of autopsies) in first 15 days, as we near 300 victims. Oct 2020 is highest with 66 victims killed. @KYWNewsradio

We lost this beauty 3 years ago today to brain cancer. She was my BFF for 25 years: sweet, giggly, creative, adventurous Kates who loved life. Brain cancer swept in, but she smiled & fought like a badass. If you can please consider donating to @NBTStweets

Weighing in… @PhillyMayor : let’s please end Zoom press conferences. Given that gun violence kills more people in Philly a day on avg. than Covid, the city should hold a press conf with leaders every week, in person. @Philadao has them every week, in person.

It’s also time to end zoom press conferences @PhiladelphiaGov . There is a big difference when press conferences are IN person. #1 they move quicker so more questions / follow up questions can be asked. #2 You can pull people aside for important clarifications …

Philly press corp repeatedly asked @PhillyMayor about his plan to stop the continuing surge in shootings & killings during a Zoom presser (again). City is above 2021’s deadliest year. He again pointed to guns as the problem. Here’s my exchange with him:

Incredibly sad: son of @PhillyPolice Inspector Chris Flacco is killed in FDR Park, following last nights @Phillies win. 20yo Nick Flacco was celebrating with a group when he was shot in the chest. My prayers are with the Flacco family & everyone who loves them @PhillyPolice
