We know you value local news and entertainment that is free, open, and independent. Producing high-quality, paywall-free content isn't free. It takes time, effort, and resources to keep you informed and entertained. Unlike corporate media, we don’t have deep-pocketed investors or big advertisers funding our work—we rely on you, our readers and listeners, to keep Radio Free Hub City running. We're literally running on a shoe-string budget, but keep working hard to provide as much news and entertainment as we can.
If just 5% of local area residents became paid supporters at only $5 per month, we could meet our fundraising goals and continue expanding our news coverage depth while continuing to provide free access for everyone. So, if you'd like to help us in our continuing quest to improve our coverage, please consider becoming a paying supporter.
Will you be one of the 5%?

The suspects, Chris Lamar Cochran, 48, Grace Elizabeth Amanda Johnson, 38, and Leland Charles Lewis, 48, all residents of Darlington, Maryland, face various charges. Cochran has been charged with kidnapping, first- and second-degree assault, and false imprisonment. Johnson faces charges of first- and second-degree assault, as well as false imprisonment. Lewis has been charged with false imprisonment, first- and second-degree assault, and reckless endangerment.
Upon responding to the scene at approximately 8:20 a.m., Maryland State Police troopers learned from the victim that he had been assaulted and held against his will before managing to escape.

In a time where local news media coverage seems to be disappearing, your contribution is more important than ever. While our in-depth articles are for supporting members only, we won’t put our core news content behind a paywall, because we believe access to news should be democratized, instead of access for only those who can afford it.
But keeping the lights on and taking the fight to local accountability takes resources. Your monthly subscription directly funds our public records requests, website hosting, and time spent analyzing local government and events so you don’t have to.
We are the only newsroom in Washington County with facts-first focus, locally owned, independent, while keeping our core news content free. Will you help us keep it that way?
Multiple law enforcement agencies assisted in the case, including the Harford County Sheriff’s Office, Maryland State Apprehension Team, and the Baltimore County Police Department. The Maryland State Police Criminal Enforcement Division Northern Region is overseeing the investigation, which remains active.
