Even Shadow Senator Paul Strauss had a car in the parade. And a classic one, to boot.

In some incredibly depressing news, The Washington Times — who just did a long investigative piece on the deaths of youths in D.C. custody — reports that both the victim and the suspect in a murder last weekend were both wards of the District. Kwan Kearney was taken into police custody on Tuesday on murder charges related to the killing of 19-year-old Jamal Wilson — Kearney stands accused of shooting Wilson on the unit block of P Street NW shortly after midnight on Sunday, November 14. The Times reports that both were under the custody of the Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services at the time of the crime — Kearney had been arrested in 2009 for assaulting a police officer, while information on why Wilson was in DYRS custody was not available. Interim DYRS Director Robert Hildum described the incident as “yet another tragedy” for the troubled agency.
