Rally protests two-tier justice after officer jailed for killing Rebecca Garnett
A Montgomery rally outside the courthouse denounced the six terms disparity in sentencing for white officer Christopher Albrecht in Rebecca Garnett's manslaughter versus Terrence Johnson, a Black man jailed for manslaughter in the murder of two Prince George's County officers. NAACP leaders urged multiracial support while noting Albrecht's Aug 12 federal prison term in Loretto Pennsylvania and calling for equal treatment under the law.

FDA plan falls short on Montgomery County campus goal
Officials say the Bush administration plan for FDA buildings in Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties ends a stalemate but remains well below Congress’s original goal of 1.9 billion. Montgomery County Economic Development Director Jon Gerson notes a 400 million proposal, with sites including Clarksburg Germantown Gaithersburg and King Farm. Rep Moreira urges continued push for total consolidation to keep proximity to NIH and high tech corridors. The plan maintains FDA operations in the county though still misses the full mission and campus scope aimed by Congress.
