Takala Robinson, 22, of Baltimore City, received a 25-year sentence after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit murder, participation in a criminal organization resulting in death, and armed robbery.

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?
The sentences were handed down in Worcester County Circuit Court by Judge Beau H. Oglesby. The case was prosecuted by the Attorney General’s Organized Crime Unit with support from local law enforcement agencies and state’s attorneys from each involved county.
